Leading democrats in the House moved to back Republican House Speaker Mike Jhonson in a shock move for the very first time.
The Speaker recently went against its party’s principle policy of not backing any bill that calls for military aid to Ukraine, which Mike Jhonson did.
There were other instances where Jhonson went opposite like the controversial surveillance bill and funding to avert government shutdown.
Trump Supports Johnson
The former President Donald Trump praised Jhonson’s efforts of fighting in the house with a razor thin majority.
Mr. Trump said in a radio interview last week that the speaker was “trying very hard” in doing his job as the speaker of the House.
Johnson Focuses On Doing His Job
In response to the developments, Johnson maintained that he was just doing what he was ought to do as a speaker of the House.
Democrats have also announced stronger support for Mike Jhonson if the Republicans try to oust him from his position.
