A Russian state TV host has celebrated Mike Johnson becoming the Speaker of the House of Representatives.
The Trump-supporting Republican was elected to the role this week after 22 days of deadlock after Kevin McCarthy’s ousting earlier in October and failed bids from other candidates, including Jim Jordan.
In a clip from Russian TV channel RTR Planeta, translated by Russian Media Monitor, Olga Skabeeva said Johnson would “suit” Russia because of his stance on Ukraine.
And Republicans hold the majority of seats because of
cheatinggerrymandering. They do not deny this fact, and continue drawing unfair, literally illegal districts as we speak. (They also have the power to write laws ending it, but fair districts would end the GOP.)
