House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) made it clear in his recent appearance on CNBC that he is 100% behind former President Donald Trump. When asked about why he hadn’t endorsed Trump yet, Johnson quickly corrected the interviewer, saying, “I have endorsed him wholeheartedly. Look, I was one of President Trump’s closest allies in Congress. We achieved incredible economic success during his first term, and I am all-in for President Trump.”

It’s no surprise that Johnson is throwing his support behind Trump, as over 70 members of the House GOP caucus have already pledged their allegiance to the former president. This show of unity underscores Trump’s continued influence within the Republican Party. Even the majority of Florida’s delegation, who have snubbed Governor Ron Desantis, have chosen to align themselves with Trump instead.
Meanwhile, Speaker Johnson’s endorsement comes at a time when moderate Republicans are being tied to him by Democrats and criticized by liberal media outlets. The Daily Beast, for example, recently attacked Johnson for his supposed lack of financial assets, suggesting that his integrity and dedication to public service make him vulnerable to foreign lobbyists. It’s a laughable attempt to undermine Johnson’s credibility, especially considering the numerous criminal indictments and civil trials President Trump has faced throughout his presidency.
As Trump dominates the Republican field and skips presidential debates, there are growing calls for Republican National Committee Chair Ronna McDaniel to cancel the remaining debates and unite the party behind Trump. With his consistent lead in the polls, there is no denying that Trump remains the frontrunner by a wide margin. It’s clear that the Republican Party understands the strength and appeal of Trump’s leadership, and they are ready to stand by him in the upcoming elections.
Speaker Johnson’s endorsement of President Trump shows that true conservatives recognize the success of Trump’s policies and the strength of his leadership. It’s refreshing to see Republicans stand up against the liberal media’s attempts to smear their own. Let’s hope that more members of Congress follow Johnson’s lead and throw their support behind the man who truly put America first.
