A stopgap measure simply continues current spending, which happens to be deficit spending.He said "we may have to". Thats is a LONG way from "i want to spend a bunch of money".
Johnson is on board with that.

Don't you think you are misapplying the RINO acronym? You use it to refer to the less radical Repubs in the caucus but not the far right Repubs who stopped advocating for traditional conservative values long ago in favor of Trumpery.The Speaker needs support from both RINOs and Conservatives.
He stopped Jordan?
Nope.
Jordan was his man. Trump lost.
No, he said "we MAY have to".A stopgap measure simply continues current spending, which happens to be deficit spending.

The deficit just for the month of September was $166 billion.
Is your concern about the deficit genuine, or just a rationalization for raising (other people's) taxes? If the former, what do you recommend to address this issue?The deficit just for the month of September was $166 billion.
As are most MAGAt Republicans in the House.Not surprising....McCarthy was always a wormy little fuck.
No one has talked about the federal debt on this forum more than me.Is your concern about the deficit genuine, or just a rationalization for raising (other people's) taxes? If the former, what do you recommend to address this issue?
No one has talked about the federal debt on this forum more than me.
No one.
And no one has offered a solution more than me.
Don't you have some spam from Daily Kooks or Raw Sewage to post?It's a moot point. Nothing in the House gets by the Senate, or Bidens veto. Doesn't matter if it's Johnson, Emmer, Jordan, or Jack Shit. They move nothing without permission or amendment suitable for the Senate or Biden.
They're going to find hat out very quickly with their first bill, which will be dead on arrival.

voted to give Russia the advantage in Ukraine,
gleefully supports the Repub efforts to force every woman to bring their fetus to term against the woman's will,
he is closely aligned with the Orange Messiah,
and finally is bigoted regarding gay people.
What more could the Freedom Caucus ask for, an avowed white supremacist?
Johnson has the stink of Trump's ass on his face which qualifies him to the mango traitor & your herd.Wtf are you babbling about?
McCarthy got tossed out on his ass for a reason. This is just some back story.
Nothing for any of us to be upset about.
It’s actually good news.
Little g; you’re dense.
It’s not like Republicans want to get anything doneIt's a moot point. Nothing in the House gets by the Senate, or Bidens veto. Doesn't matter if it's Johnson, Emmer, Jordan, or Jack Shit. They move nothing without permission or amendment suitable for the Senate or Biden.

This is explains why Jordan didn't get the votes. McCarthy sabotaged him and the others.
And now Trump will come along and say he liked Johnson from the beginning and will try to take credit for Johnson getting the speakers chair.
Matt Gaetz Accuses McCarthy Of Scuttling Scalise, Jordan, And Emmer—But Failed To Stop Mike Johnson
Matt Gaetz is entitled to his opinion but that is all it is, one man's opinion.
Mike Johnson, unlike ANYBODY else including McCarthy, got 100% of the GOP vote for the nomination, and 100% of the GOP vote to be Speaker. Despite being a Trump supporters and hardline conservative, he got a standing ovation from both GOP and Democrats when the vote was in and he officially became Speaker of the House.
Petty and mean spirited attempts to tear apart what has become a unity and good thing in the House of Representatives, to continue to stir up discontent and angry feelings, does not reflect well for anybody doing that whether left/right/Democrat/Republican.
Nobody focused strictly on partisan politics and advantage gives one damn about the American people or how government serves the people who elected it.
