Liz Cheney drops the mic on Mike Johnson for attending Trump's hush-money trial
Former Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) roasted her former colleague, House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA), for showing up to former President Donald Trump's hush-money trial in Manhattan on Tuesday.
Punchbowl News' Jake Sherman reported earlier in the morning that Johnson would become the latest politician to show up to show his support for the presumptive Republican presidential nominee, and Cheney couldn't help but note the irony of a devout Christian like Johnson pledging allegiance to a man on trial for seedy hush-money coverup charges.
"Have to admit I’m surprised that Speaker Johnson wants to be in the 'I cheated on my wife with a porn star' club," wrote Cheney. "I guess he’s not that concerned with teaching morality to our young people after all."
Cheney wasn't the only prominent commentator to weigh in on Johnson's display of fealty to Trump. Yale Law School professor Scott Shapiro also cracked a joke about a pious Christian like Johnson defending Trump's adult film star hush-money payments. "I prayed and the Lord said to me: 'Modern-day Moses, go forth and support the man who paid the porn star not to reveal his adultery and then lied to the Government so as to pay less tax,'" he wrote.

When it comes to religion never trust the middle man.
