House Republicans unconcerned with Greene’s MAGA purity test

An unspecified number of House Republicans, four of them actually quoted, tell Semafor they’re not particularly concerned with Marjorie Taylor Greene‘s vow to use their votes against vacating Jesus Dork House Speaker Mike Johnson as a purity test in still-ongoing primaries and in November.

“Even if it did, I wouldn’t care,” Texas Congressman Jake Ellzey – who already won his primary on Super Tuesday and thus does not have to worry – said in response to a question of whether backing the speaker could cost him the votes of disaffected Catturd followers who hate Johnson. “There is no support for this.” Freedom Caucasians chair Bob Good, a far right asshole who faces a possibly tough primary challenge back home in Virginia (one backed by Greene and at least four other incumbent House Republicans) for the sin of having endorsed Ron DeSantis before switching back to Trump, is at least not outwardly worried about the “distraction,” saying “We have a three-vote margin. We should be focused on reelecting President Trump. This does not help President Trump.”

Former Nikki Haley backer South Carolina Republican Ralph Norman similarly brushed off any potential backlash. “In this business you get some happy, you can get some mad. That what comes with the territory,” said Norman. “Moderate” shitbag Don Bacon said Greene and antisemite Thomas Massie’s Wednesday presser was “just two people being dumb and hurting the whole team.”

A “senior GOP aide” told Semafor that even if “the crazies won’t like” members siding with Johnson, it wouldn’t be a “nail in the coffin” for any of them. And goddamn it, that an anonymous high-level staffer describes the Republican base as “the crazies” should’ve been the lede here because it says so freaking much about the relationship between GOP leadership and the Americans whose votes they rely on to maintain their power. Opportunity cost is such a cruel and unforgiving bitch.
