Despite Trump endorsement, Johnson's House speaker position remains vulnerable
- Mike Johnson's position as House Speaker is vulnerable as the new Congress convenes, requiring nearly all Republican votes to retain his role.
- Donald Trump endorsed Johnson for Speaker in a social media post, providing him with a significant advantage.
- Johnson became Speaker in October 2023 after Republicans struggled to replace Kevin McCarthy, who was removed by eight Republicans and Democrats.
- The House speakership has been vacant only 13 times in U.S. History, and it is uncertain if Johnson will secure a majority on the first ballot.
