Republican Speaker of the House, Mike Johnson, recently expressed his views on the issue of undocumented immigrants voting, emphasizing the importance of requiring proof of citizenship to maintain the sanctity of elections. Johnson compared the need for identification in various societal transactions to the necessity of verifying citizenship for voting, stating that enforcing existing laws against noncitizens voting is crucial.
Johnson highlighted the potential chaos in elections due to noncitizens being on voter rolls in certain states, underscoring the need to address this issue to uphold the integrity of the electoral process.
Regarding advice given to House Republicans on avoiding attacks related to race and gender, Johnson affirmed his consistency in advocating for focusing on policy and record rather than engaging in rhetoric or personal attacks. He mentioned advising President Trump on the same approach, emphasizing the importance of running campaigns based on policy and not personality.
Johnson criticized Vice President Kamala Harris, labeling her as the most liberal member of the Senate and characterizing her as a San Francisco radical with far-left values. He questioned Harris' ability to address economic issues effectively, citing her past involvement in the administration without significant accomplishments.
As Harris prepared for a campaign event, Johnson expressed skepticism about her ability to deliver on promises and suggested that she faced a challenging task in convincing the American people of her capabilities.
