Former President Donald Trump offered words of praise for House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., saying he is “trying very hard” and is “a very good person.”
His comments came Monday evening during an interview with Real America’s Voice radio host John Fredericks.
“Look, we have a majority of one [in the House],” Trump said. “It’s not like he can go and do whatever he wants. I think he’s a very good person. I think he’s a very good man. I think he’s trying very hard. And, again, we have to have a very big election” to increase the Republican majority in the House.
“We have to elect some good senators, get rid of some of the ones we have right now like [Utah Sen. Mitt] Romney and others. We have to have a big day and win the presidency.”
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., on Friday formally filed a motion to remove Johnson due to his support of the $1.2 trillion spending bill and spearheading the $95 billion foreign aid package that’s now in the Senate.
Greene filed a motion to vacate the chair, the same procedure used by Rep. Matt Gaetz, R-Fla., in October to remove then-Speaker Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif.
