Shocker: Democrats Are ALREADY Filling Their Diapers Over Mike Johnson as Speaker of the House


In the esteemed chambers of the House of Representatives, a new era has begun with the election of Mike Johnson (R-LA) as Speaker of the House. Mere hours have passed since his election, and the reactions from the left are nothing short of explosive. It's as if the usual playbook was dusted off the moment Johnson's name was announced as the unanimous choice.




What's astonishing is that these reactions are surfacing even before the newly elected Speaker has taken any significant action. The preemptive strike from the left speaks volumes about the hyper-partisan environment in Washington. It's a stark reminder of the prevailing impulse to demonize one's political adversaries even before they've taken a step forward.




As reported by Breitbart News, the election of Johnson has caused significant consternation among Democratic ranks. In a rare show of unity, the GOP Conference had unanimously elected Johnson, making him the first Republican since 2011 to receive such unanimous support.




Yet, despite the Republican solidarity behind Johnson, Democrats have been quick to sound the alarm bells. In what can be seen as a contradictory stance, while President Joe Biden officially congratulated Johnson on his election, a subsequent statement from the Biden 2024 campaign decried Johnson's rise as emblematic of an "extreme MAGA takeover."




It's intriguing how certain figures on the left are so swift to label Johnson. Representatives Katie Porter, Ilhan Omar, Adam Schiff, and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez have already branded Johnson with terms such as "insurrectionist," "extremist," and "election denier." These are heavy accusations, and their rapid deployment reveals a readiness to frame the narrative around Johnson even before his leadership truly begins.




Johnson's unanimous election as the Speaker is no small feat. If anything, it signifies the Republican Party's trust in his ability to lead and represent conservative values. The vehemence with which some Democrats have responded might very well be an indication that Johnson is poised to be a formidable leader, unapologetically conservative, and a challenge to the prevailing narratives on the left.




In the coming months, as Johnson begins his tenure, it will be crucial for observers to separate the man from the myths being woven around him. It is only through objective analysis and understanding that we can truly gauge the kind of leader Johnson will be. For now, if the intense reactions are any indication, his speakership promises to be anything but dull.
