House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) just spoke in the park outside the courthouse for several minutes, criticizing the criminal prosecutions of Donald Trump. While this was billed as a news conference, Johnson left in a hurry without taking questions. Some observers shouted queries: Shouldn’t the New York case be left to the jury? What did Johnson make of the salacious allegations at the center of the case? (Johnson is a very socially conservative Christian.) Johnson said something briefly to the pack of people who tried to follow him out of the park, but it was difficult to hear.
The “very religious” Mike Johnson was out defending Trump this morning. It seems the cheating on your wife with a porn star is no big deal when the MAGA MORONS want what they want. Evangelicals Christians are hypocrites
