Mike Johnson and Vivek Ramaswamy Are Next Suck-Ups at Trump Trial
Speaker Mike Johnson was set to become the latest high-profile Republican to make a pilgrimage to the trial of former President Donald Trump on Tuesday.
Johnson, whose job was salvaged with the help of Democrats in the House last week, was looking to bolster his credentials with the MAGA crowd by showing his faith in Trump after Marjorie Taylor Greene tried to oust him from office. His expected appearance in court was confirmed to The Daily Beast by a source with direct knowledge.
The trial has become a proving-ground for Republicans to show their loyalty to Trump, who has described the trial as a politically-motivated witch hunt.
