Dr. FrankenBob Creates A Monster
Most agree, Johnson is far worse than McCarthy and Bob has lost control of it. OPINION seasoned with some Satire.
Bob Good created the Mike Johnson catastrophe as much as anyone. Bob Good cannot get a bill passed into law, and this was more of his usual showboating to compensate, removing McCarthy as Speaker of the House, as a deflection from his legislative air-guitar playing. Some say this was about McCarthy not helping Matt Gaetz with his coke and young girl problems in the media. Gaetz appears to be Good’s mentor, and one wonders why Bob, who constantly proclaims his faith, is associated with a man embroiled in scandals.
The play against McCarthy is perfectly Bob; all for the moment and all about Bob. There was no plan, no strategy, and ‘burn it down’ Bob took his “ hammer to it” for theater. Bob doesn't think or care about consequences to the Party or the Country; he is only interested in what he believes benefits him, which is Good as it Gaetz with Good.
Bob’s lack of foresight created a monster. Mike Johnson is alive, escaped, and walking the halls of Congress and destroying our agenda and Caucus in a rampage of bad law. Johnson is all about passing bad bills into law, while Good is bad at passing any bill into law. The monster says one thing and, like Good, does another. Johnson, like Good, proclaims his faith while betraying everyone around him. Good betrayed McCarthy and Trump and has reversed himself at least twice on Johnson. Looking at his creator, Johnson said, “Hold my beer,” and backstabbed the entire Caucus! There is no honor among thieves, especially those who steal Christendom's name and use it for personal benefit.
Some garlic, some swamp, a little paprika, special interests, and… VOILÀ!
Many of us knew McCarthy worked against conservative issues as much as he did for them, but in a world of thin vote margins and tight congressional races, no one in their right mind would kill off someone like McCarthy- at least not until we had a secure working majority and the races around the country counting on the Party’s best fundraiser were won. You don’t pull the tares from the wheat without killing the wheat. Bob doesn’t care, or he is just plain stupid; certainly not right in the mind, as conservatism considers outcomes before acting. Bob plays checkers in a 3D chess game.
Bob had to dig up and stitch together something to take McCarthy’s place, and what he dug up, sewed together, and jolted into power was another guy scamming religion for power. Good ‘gaetz’ a taste of his own medicine! Here is what Bob had to say about monster Johnson while he worked in the laboratory of expediency.
“This affirms the path we took,” ~ NYT October 25, 2023
"I think he's [Johnson] the kind of servant leader that we need. He's highly respected within the conference. He's a person of integrity. He's a strong conservative, and I believe he's been prepared for this opportunity," ~WSET Lynchburg, VA October 26th 2023
"Two months from now, six months from now, a year from now, the American people aren't going to care how many weeks it took for us to get a speaker, they're going to care about what Congress was doing for them and this was an important change. It's an important decision to get the right person," ~ WSET Lynchburg, VA October 26th 2023
That’s not all. Here is Bob crowing about his monster on X-Twitter:
Bob extolled his grand experiment from his castle, the HFC, and the coming benefits to us Republicans! He was breathing life into a dead Speakership! It’s Alive! I’ve done it! Eureka! How did that work out?
We’ve gone from having a swampy Speaker who could at least raise money for other Republicans to having a monster. At least with McCarthy, other candidates could benefit from his PACs—just as did Bob, who accepted “millions” from Kevin in the last cycle. Bob’s fleeting, holier-than-thou texts and emails about McGuire just now receiving $10k are another example of his consuming lies and hypocrisies
Bob owns Johnson—he took out McCarthy without giving a damn about consequences, and he pitched Johnson without understanding there are consequences. Now, most Republicans see Johnson as far worse than McCarthy, and they ain’t wrong! Bob did that.
Many of us thought it strange that after Jordon was sidelined, this fellow Johnson sort of climbed up out of a grave, and none of the usual suspects complained- all those whining about Jordon were dead silent.
Marjorie Taylor Green, a vocal critic of Good’s, said he has betrayed Republicans by handing the gavel to Joe Biden, Chuck Schumer, Hakeem Jeffries, and the rest of the Democrats. '“He betrayed us on border security. He betrayed us by funding endless foreign wars. He betrayed us on FISA. He betrayed us by fully funding Biden’s DOJ. And Mike Johnson did it all by working with the Democrats.”
It's all true. Mike Johnson is Bob Good’s creation. Without Bob Good's actions, Mike Johnson would not be the Speaker. It is inarguable.
Burn-it-Down Bob wears his Chairmanship of the House Freedom Caucus (no one else was stupid enough to take the job) on his forehead. Ask yourself- how much freer do you feel now that his rampaging HFC-endorsed monster, Johnson, has taken Bob’s proverbial sledgehammer and leveled our agendas? At best, we are left with a lame-duck Speaker, or at worst, he has to be vacated, and no one will take the job for obvious reasons and we won’t have a Speaker at all. Actions have consequences. Bob has no judgment or skill and is a rash and monstrous little man in a position of power in dangerous times. As Good as it can Gaetz? Hardly.
Bob took credit for Johnson, as we can see above.
Bob distances himself from vacating Johnson after vacating McCarthy.
Bob panhandles Johnson for an endorsement.
Bob claims Johnson asked if he could endorse him!Bob is all over the place!
