MSNBC’s Jen Psaki on Sunday mentioned the “apparent query” about new Home Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) is about how his deeply non secular convictions “sq. along with his fierce loyalty” to former President Donald Trump, whose efforts to overturn the 2020 election Johnson staunchly backed.
Trump is “a man who has been married a number of instances, paid hush cash to a porn star and joked about grabbing ladies,” famous Psaki, a former Biden White Home press secretary. Johnson, in the meantime, has mentioned his worldview will be discovered within the Bible and has fiercely opposed LGBTQ+ and abortion rights.
“I might like to know which passage within the Bible advised Johnson to grow to be one of the vital vital architects behind Trump’s effort to overturn the 2020 election,” mentioned Psaki. “Which passage? Was it God whispering in his ear to disregard the Structure and disenfranchise hundreds of thousands of voters?”
Johnson “clearly envisions a rustic that’s much less democratic and fewer tolerant,” Psaki added.
