Johnson may have some MAGA chops but he's not a barnstormer money guy.  He'll have to become one I suppose, but that's hard to do when you've got to keep your thumb on so many members and committees from physically inside the Capitol for the next 12-14 months.

Back bencher who hasn’t had  a chance to make in-caucus enemies….yet

One “capitulation” to the Senate/Biden on government funding, the farm bill, whatever, he is toast.

WATCH: Did you know that the new Speaker of the House “MAGA Mike (lol)” is an advocate of Critical Race Theory (CRT)?

In this video on PBS news, he says he thinks black people have a harder time than white people in America because being white gives you an advantage, which is why we should feel bad for black people. That’s basically what he said in this clip.

This is the same rhetoric used by Progressive Democrats. It’s toxic, and it’s not true. In America, your success is determined by your hard work, not the color of your skin. I’m not a fan of @RepMikeJohnson

There’s a reason why all of the RINOS happily voted for him today. He’s a snake. And I’m sounding the alarm.

Wow, he adopted a black son.

I have to tell ya that as a Christian, alarm bells sent crazy as I watched Johnson assume the podium with his Bible.

Once again the wacko version of Christianity is what gets presented. Every single one of those Trumpkins that spouts anything about Jesus is a complete fraud and grifter. It sucks that Biden is a good example of being a Christian, but these GQP rubes think he’s the anti-Christ. He’s everything I would want in a leader in that he doesn’t force his religion on Americans and he treats everyone the same no matter what your faith is or if you have none at all. What a bizarre world we live in that that is hated by millions of these absolutely horrific people.

OH SNAP HE'S WOKE!

Undercover Democrat? Some far-right MAGA influencers have started attacking the new Speaker, Mike Johnson, over an interview he gave a few years ago, talking about how he was outraged over the death of George Floyd. He also talked about his black son and how he has more challenges in life compared to his white son. The Daily Wire’s Matt Walsh said that Johnson's comments were a "full-fledged endorsement of the Left’s racial narrative.” MAGA influencer Lara Loomer slammed Johnson: "Turns out there’s no difference between MAGA MIKE and Big Mike! Is he an undercover Democrat?” WTF is wrong with these people?

Make no mistake this guy is BAD for swing district Republicans.

The kind of stuff the GOP ran with Pelosi as Speaker will now be run by Democrats (except of course framing him as being too conservative).

I'll save you having to click on that shite:

 

A coalition of blacks, Latinos, feminists, gays, government workers, union members, environmental extremists, the media, Hollywood, uninformed young people, the "forever needy," the chronically unemployed that do not want to work, illegal aliens, and other "fellow travelers" have ended.........Norman Rockwell's America.

You will never again out-vote these people. It will take individual acts of defiance and massive displays of civil disobedience to regain the rights we have allowed them to take away. It will take zealots, not moderates and shy, not reach-across-the-aisle RINOs (Republicans In Name Only) to right this ship and restore our beloved country to its former status.

and

This is why I have come to admire the founding fathers all the more. Subsequent politicians lifting merit based restrictions on who got to vote resulted in irreparable damage and ultimately the destruction of the American Dream.

and

OP is right we pretty much a third world country at this point better learn Spanish amigos.

and

There is no room for white males in todays society.

 

 

That's only the first half of the first page of the thread. All I could stomach.

Originally there were property requirements to vote. Also infamously during segregation the racists loved poll taxes and tests.

[Pato del Muerto 52,549]

Strange. I can look around my office and see plenty of white males happy and succeeding. Probably half the office. I also see the myriad others that make up the other half, also happy and successful. 
 

I guess the issue on texags is that it isn’t 90-100% white males.

I was having lunch with a buddy today, and we were both expressing how we can't understand people get so angry at admitting that they might have had an easier time becuase they are white males. It doesn't diminsh anything hard you've done, it doesn't mean you haven't worked hard, it doesn't mean you haven't earned what you've gotten, it just means you can acknowledge that you've probably been dealt a better hand than many in this world. 

Which is weird, as most people would admit that being born in America in general versus anywhere else in the world means you were born on 3rd base. And that doesn't damage anyone's egos at all, but somehow being a white male to many means your achievements have been marginalized. 

I just don't understand the anger and grievance people most generate. I wonder, how many of thsoe people would trade being a white male for anything else? Because the answer is zero, and not just because they're inherently racist.
