House Speaker Mike Johnson (R- LA ) has had to deal with razor-thin majorities and pushback from his right flank.

Last week , fiscal conservatives who have never voted for a short-term spending bill, or continuing resolution, ended up helping push the legislation over the finish line.

Trump has also saved Johnson ’s job as speaker on numerous occasions, after hard-liners upset with various legislative stances threatened or filed motions to vacate the chair.

Balint: “If, if, if he weren't in the picture, I do think that there's a possibility to get to a short-term CR that was actually clean” Burlison said he only voted for the CR because of Trump .

“We're not passing appropriations bills right now. We need to be doing that. If we’re actually going to do the job of Congress — what we did, this, today , is demonstrating that Congress is a failure,” he said.
