Mike Johnson: Hakeem Jeffries and I ‘Have a Lot More in Common’ than Most Think
Breitbart ^ | 05/10/2024 | SEAN MORAN

Posted on 05/10/2024 1:00:26 PM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) praised House Democrat Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) in an interview with Politico, saying that he and the Democrat leader have “more in common than people might think.”

Johnson said about Jeffries:

I have. Hakeem is a good man. We’ve worked well together. We have a lot more in common than people might think. You know, he’s from New York and I’m from Louisiana. While we have lots of disagreements on policies and the fine points of policy, I think you can appreciate people for who they are as a person. I think that’s what we’re called to do. And he and I both kind of share the worldview on that. I can appreciate that he’s a good family man. We have a lot in common in that regard. And he lost his father recently, I lost mine three days before I got elected to Congress. We’ve talked about that.

And I think what we’ve appreciated about one another is that I believe that when Hakeem Jeffries is telling me something, I believe he’s telling me the truth. I believe he is a man of his word. And I think he believes that about me as well. That’s a big thing in Washington. You know, trust is a rare commodity around here. [Emphasis added]

Well, Hakeem is a commie, so, there’s that.

Whatever they have on Mikey, must be good (or, bad).

both are grifting leftists. Is anyone decent running against Johnson in November? Apparently Louisiana does not have primaries.

At this point if Johnson is only facing a Democrat then Louisianans should vote for the Democrat.

LOL !

Trump needs to cut this guy loose, and risk it on the Dems striking him off the ballot with a one seat majority; and then getting it past the Senate.

On the day Johnson’s number 1 critique, Steve Bannon, loses his appeal, Johnson waves his freak flag high.
