MAGAt Moses Mikey "can't say Republicans are going to lose the majority. Money would dry up."

“No one thinks we’re keeping the majority except for the speaker,” one House Republican, who requested anonymity to discuss the internal sentiment, told MS NOW.

The lawmaker suggested Johnson’s confidence was less a reflection of the mood inside the conference and more about the impossible position he’s in.

“What’s he going to go out there and say? ‘We’re going to lose the majority’? He can’t do that,” the House Republican said. “Money would dry up.”

The candid assessment comes as Congress barrels toward the November midterm elections that Republicans see as make or break: Retain the majority and continue to provide President Donald Trump with a legislative partner, or hand the gavel to Democrats, many of whom are clamoring to launch impeachment proceedings against the president.

Their donors, who usually are the only interests they serve anyway. Now, not even them.
