Donald Trump’s biggest upcoming fight isn’t with the Democrat Party.
RINOs in his own party are preparing to sabotage his own agenda.
And one RINO traitor just made Donald Trump’s life a living hell.
House Speaker Mike Johnson on thin ice
House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) already failed Donald Trump.
Johnson failed to carry out Donald Trump’s ask to take care of the debt ceiling before the inauguration.
That means Trump now has to handle a spending fight instead of concentrating 100 percent of the attention on passing his bills to secure the border, extend the 2017 tax cuts, and add new tax cuts like his no taxes on tips plans.
Johnson’s place as Speaker isn’t secure.
When the House votes for who should be Speaker on January 3, Johnson can only afford to lose three votes.
Conservative Republican Kentucky Congressman Thomas Massie is already a no.
Other House conservatives like Maryland’s Andy Harris are also furious.

But the RINO’s in Congress are circling the wagons.
Nebraska’s Don Bacon is one of the most left-wing Republicans in the conference.
And in an interview with NewsNation’s Chris Stirewalt, Bacon defended Johnson even though Johnson just sold out Donald Trump.
“He has my support. He’s a good man, he works hard. You know, he’s trying to get these bills passed with a very small majority, and the fact is, Chris, we have thirty to forty Republicans who refuse to sign on any continuing resolution or any debt ceiling bill, period,” Bacon began.
Bacon defended Johnson caving in to Democrats and trying to pass a government funding bill that included $300 billion in new spending.
“So, the speaker’s gonna have to work with Democrats to get 218 votes, and then these thirty or forty people get mad about it,” Bacon added.
Bacon even blamed Donald Trump for Johnson’s incompetence.
“And I would say to the President Trump, to throw this down on the speaker at the 11th hour and 59th minute that he wanted a debt ceiling raise, this is something we had to work on for weeks and weeks in advance, and it was just too late to get that done, and it is something that we can get done in reconciliation, and the speaker has a good plan for how to address the debt ceiling thing. I think the president should take the speaker’s advice on this. He’s got the best path forward,” Bacon continued.
Bacon then attacked Trump’s agenda as “extreme” and demanded Trump govern according to the establishment’s wishes.
“I think we’ve still got to govern from the center to the right, and not just from the far-right, because the fact is you’re not gonna get those votes in the House or Senate if you try to govern that way,” Bacon declared.
“James Madison designed a system that forces consensus building, so you can’t just govern from an extreme position,” Bacon concluded.
