For Some Reason, Johnson And Trump Rush To Help Greene Not Embarrass Herself

I don’t have an answer as to why exactly criminal defendant and 2024 Republican nominee Donald Trump and House Speaker of a teeny tiny majority Mike Johnson (R-LA) are both taking time out of their busy schedules this week to try to talk Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) out of embarrassing herself with a doomed motion to vacate maneuver — but it’s striking to see.

‘While Johnson has insisted that the meetings are “not a negotiation,” the conversation Monday lasted about two hours and the trio met again today to discuss a path forward,’

‘Lasted two hours.’

WTAF happened during the other 1:58:00 after they explained why the MTV was DOA?

Did they then hafta’ use a mallet to the forehead for emphasis?

I’m clueless as to why Johnson and Diaper Don are throwing her a lifeline instead of an anchor? The only thing I can think of is that they realize that MTG is dumber than a box of rocks and a she is stupid enough to repeatedly pull the pin on the grenade but not smart enough to let go of it, and seems hell bent on embarrassing the GOP.
