Renowned for his unwavering support of former President Trump, Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., is set to make a bold statement in downtown Manhattan. Despite the political storm surrounding Trump’s criminal trial, Johnson remains resolute in his solidarity with the President.
In a move that underscores his staunch alliance with Trump, Johnson’s office confirmed his imminent presence at the Manhattan Criminal Court. His arrival marks yet another demonstration of support from within Congress for the embattled former leader.
Joining the ranks of Trump’s allies, Johnson’s appearance coincides with that of Vivek Ramaswamy, a former Republican primary candidate who is now speculated to be a potential running mate for Trump in the future.
Since assuming the role of speaker last October, Johnson’s alignment with Trump has deepened significantly. He has consistently denounced the legal actions taken against Trump, particularly the case unfolding in Manhattan, attributing them to partisan motives.
