Republicans have won back the White House and the U.S. Senate in the 2024 race and now all eyes are on the House of Representatives.
House Speaker Mike Johnson spoke with Axios and revealed that he is feeling pretty good about his job security.
As the election results unfolded on Tuesday night and into Wednesday, Johnson—who was once seen as a temporary leader—said he was sure that House Republicans would keep their majority and choose him to stay as speaker.
We’ve been working for a year … preparing this playbook that we’ll talk about all the time for the next Congress. So if we’re going to … run those plays and execute them with precision, you got to keep the quarterback on the field and keep the same team,” Johnson said in an exclusive interview from his campaign headquarters.
Johnson told his campaign team in his war room that he doesn’t see a way that former President Trump could win the White House and the GOP lose the House.
