Every 13 years is “too common?” (What’s “too common” is the damn “shadow docket!”)

In history, presidents had to court Speakers and leaders of the Senate. They no longer do when faced with toady’s like Johnson.

Johnson has proven to be the most feckless Speaker in the history of the House. The one Speaker willing to cover-up something as heinous as - fucking children. (I meant to say that.). What makes him more despicable is his moralizing, his faux religiousness, and that he is a Constitutional lawyer who ignores its precepts.

Going back to Gingrich I have never had a good thought about Republican Speakers. The internal IN-HOUSE fighting over Boehner, Ryan, McCarthy, Johnson, and whatever Republican follows him is just more proof : Republicans cannot govern.
