If there is one thing that Speaker Mike Johnson likes to do the most, it is to deflect. I wouldn’t say that he is the best at what he does, but he definitely aims for the stars.
During the ongoing government shutdown, whenever the media has asked Mike Johnson to comment on issues for which Trump is responsible, he has consistently avoided answering. His choice of words in these situations often includes phrases like “I don’t know,” “I’m not aware of that,” or “I was busy, so I didn’t have time to learn about it.”
