Rough road for Johnson

[Mik]

Persuasion > browbeating.

[Renauda]

There appears to be a faction in the GOP that wants not only its voice heard but to be obeyed as well.

[Copper]

Obedience has always been an important commitment in any political party.

And a former President who denied his election loss with a lawyer arguing a sitting president can kill his political opponent as long as he resigns before he’s impeached.

His lawyer didn't say that. It was the prosecution's lawyer saying that as a hypothetical.

[89th]

To which the lawyer said he’d only get in trouble for it if Congress impeached him

[Renauda]

They say or at least, I am told, that obedience is always an important commitment in any political party. I am sure they - in this case the snarky GOP factionalists - would know this indisputable fact.

[Copper]

Insults, always with the insults.

Weak.

[Renauda]

Snark, always with the same old unimaginative snark.

Trite.

Johnson seems to have told the right fringe to eat shit.

[Mik]

I think he senses the mood of the country. We’d like to see more government, less bullshit squabbles.
