15 clapbacks to the Speaker urging people to ‘give up their personal preferences for the greater good’ of Trump’s billionaire cashgrab bill
Maga Mike Johnson was obviously born without a sense of shame, or the ability to know when to keep his mouth shut. After all, the now Speaker of the House of Representatives is the man who thought he should tell the world that he and his son keep each other pure for Jesus by monitoring one another’s internet porn.
Mike Johnson Said He and His Son Monitor Each Other’s Porn Usage, and Yeah, It’s Exactly as Weird as It Soundshttps://t.co/wcngh03EGV

In the face of questions about a bill set to take healthcare insurance from an estimated 20 million people, remove millions more from a food provision programme, and further enrich Trump’s billionaire buddies, Johnson had some advice.

In other words – shut up and do as the Cheeto-in-Chief tells you. Minnesota representative Ilhan Omar cut to the chase.
What personal preferences? Stripping healthcare away from millions? Taking away nutrition assistance from hungry children? Giving tax breaks to billionaires at the expense of working people?
Abandoning any morals to appease the wannabe dictator. https://t.co/xbvy5AkZi4

Twitter wasn’t buying it, either.

It's not about getting 100% of what everyone wants. This is about a bill that is ill-conceived, cobbled together on the fly, rushed through the process, and whose policy measures will ultimately create greater costs down the line than it claims to save.
Especially Medicaid.

Peter, @_e_tto_, pointed out the irony.
“We all have to give up our personal preferences” says the guy pushing forced birth, Christian nationalism, and book bans. Funny how your preferences always get to stay, huh Mike?
