22. That's because he's blackmailing him like almost everyone else in the MAGA GOP.

He got rid of everyone else that wasn't compromised. You think the Christian lawyer who was dean of a law school that never opened that was named after and was also run by the head of the Southern Baptist Convention, Paul Pressler, who was accused of sexual misconduct by numerous young men doesn't have other skeletons in his closet? His wife has a controlling interest in an LLC named Onward Christian Education Services, Inc that wasn't disclosed until after it was exposed by media, and there's the Grindr issue. Think there's not more? What's been disclosed so far is more than enough to disqualify him from office from an ethics standpoint. But Trump pushed for him specifically. Not because he likes him. Trump doesn't really like many people. For him, relationships are transactional. Trump is getting something. Johnson isn't. So how is Trump pulling Johnson's strings?
