We now have a Pharisee as Speaker of the House, anything he does will be mandated by God. This is why unwashed Magats are set in their ways, because of religion. Trump was sent by God and now Johnson was sent by God, how does anyone argue with that logic?
Make no mistake, Johnson is a true believer, a man of God. Good luck in getting a spending bill passed, good luck keeping the government open, whatever Johnson does, he does in the name of God.
This is why our founders put separation of church and state in the Constitution, because of people like Michael Johnson.
We are in for a long row to hoe folks.
Vote them out.

(82,293 posts)Johnson is quite evil like Gym, but wraps it up in religious grandiosity.
Spends his time insulting and demeaning others but pretends to be joking
or sincere about it.

He sees himself as one of the already chosen and his time on Earth is to be used to teach the rest of us of Gods wrath. Anything, goes. He feels he can do no wrong.

(37,991 posts)In complete contempt. They FA in electing him and now were all going to FO.
Irish_Dem
(82,293 posts)The only relationships he has are entirely transactional.
What others can do for him. Once people are of no use, he will discard them.
He is the star in every scene, everyone else is just a prop.

(14,197 posts)There's actually not much daylight between the two in the christo-fascism space. But if he actually believes he was ordained to lead he probably expects God to do something about the people who stand between him and the presidency. I'm concerned other nutjobs might be making the same calculation.

(32,760 posts)Ken Buck even voted against them. Johnson wants to gut everything. None of the bills they passed will clear the Senate.

(32,760 posts)Gym Jordan is a con man like Trump, Johnson is a true believer, he wants to replace the Constitution with the Old Testament.

(693 posts)not by God. The fundies have to believe in Satan's existence, because the New Testament says that he took Jesus to the top of a high mountain and tempted him there (Matthew 4:8-10)
