MAGA’s message to Washington is to get a grip: Trump fans fed up with dysfunction and lack of leadership tell bickering Republican party to ‘stand together’ and unite in a VERY important year

Republican voters say they are frustrated by the dysfunction of their current Republican lawmakers in Washington as they rally behind Donald Trump’s bid to return to the White House.

“I wish the Republicans would get their act together and at least present a united front to the public,” said Courtney Bracken, 46. “I think in an election season it’s really important that at least the optics seems we are united. .’

She went on to say that she doesn’t care “if they fight in the back room.”

Trump fan Michael Mann, 61, said Republicans in Washington are “a mess.”

‘I think they need to get their act together. They are very disorganized. It’s time for them to tackle it together, instead of trying to go on an ego trip,” Mann said.

Johnson has suffered a number of humiliating defeats since being elected to leadership.

Last week, he was dealt another blow by members of his own hardliner party who rose up and blocked a procedural vote to move forward with the reauthorization of the controversial surveillance law: the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA).

It was only the latest in a series of procedural hurdles in which Johnson fell short with an unwieldy caucus.

“I love Mike Johnson, I really do. I know some MAGAs don’t like him, but I think he’s a good guy for the job,” Paul Sayre, 66, said of the controversial speaker.

‘This has gone too far. He’s doing well,” Stephanie Colofa said. 50.

But other Republicans who support Trump want to see a bigger shake-up in Washington in November.

“I think our government in general needs a reset,” said Matthew Onuschak, 44.

“I think there’s leadership on both sides — I shouldn’t say leadership because there isn’t any,” he said.

Johnson and Trump met at Mar-a-Lago on Friday, where they stood together for a press conference.

The joint action comes as Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., has initiated the process to impeach Johnson and warned him against bringing the Senate foreign aid package to a vote.

“We get along very well with the speaker,” Trump said in response to a question about whether it would be a bad idea to back Johnson’s motion to leave. Trump said he also gets along with Greene.

‘We have a speaker. He was elected. It was a complicated process and I don’t think it is an easy situation for any Speaker. I think he’s doing a very good job,” Trump said as Johnson stood next to him.

“He’s doing about as well as you’re going to do,” Trump said. Trump claimed that Greene “has great respect for the speaker.”

Later, Trump said it was a shame the motion to leave the country was brought forward because the US has “much bigger problems.”

Speaker Johnson told Fox News on Sunday that he and the former president are “100 percent aligned on these major agenda items.”
