Trump urged to step in to unite GOP as lawmakers fear speaker showdown could delay election certification
Fox News
Rep. James Comer, R-Ky., urged President-elect Trump to encourage Republicans to unite around Speaker Mike Johnson to ensure there are no delays in certifying the 2024 election.
"But at the end of the day, the difference between the 119th Congress and the 118th Congress is we'll have a Republican president, a strong Republican president who's very popular with Republican congressmen, constituents back home, and that's Donald Trump," he continued. Taylor Penley is an associate editor with Fox News.
But the math is daunting for Johnson, especially if a few of his fellow Republicans decide to vote for someone else, preventing him from reaching the magic number of 218.
