Dasha Burns: "If you were in Speaker Johnson's shoes right now would you be worried about your job?"
Former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy: "No. He doesn't need to worry...I don't believe he has any problem.I don't think the Republicans that there's somebody else that can get 218. I think President Trump is at the strongest place of any president since Roosevelt." He also says of discharge petitions, "Structure dictates behavior. You've got to unite your party first, your conference to say, 'we're not going to go there. we can disagree with one another, but we're not turning the power over the minority that unites them and divides us. Low and behold you;'ll lose the election.
