After a 72-hour marathon with Wrangling votes to keep the GOP-Caucus in line, spokesman Mike Johnson and President Donald Trump worked together Place past the “a big nice bill”.
It is a large, historical hurdle that will be the determining legislative product of President Trump’s second term.
The political class in Washington mocked Johnson’s commitment from the beginning and mocked it Deliver the invoice at the Memorial Day Weekend. Almost every day, the Beltway Media explained the time frame for unobstructed – and spokesman Johnson’s coalition too fragile to keep such an ambitious period.

Certainly the efforts of the past to drive the marquee laws like this have not moved quickly in a presidency so early. The law on inflation reduction of the former president Biden only solved the congress deep in its second year. The law on affordable care was signed 14 months after the term of office by President Obama. Even the Trump tax cuts from 2017 came together at the end of December.
But President Trump and spokesman Johnson are an impressive team. More than a year ago, spokesman Johnson was confident that Trump would return to the White House and the Republicans would repeat control over the congress. So Johnson began to plan. He was careful that the uniform government unlocked the reconciliation process – a household maneuver that enables the most important financial laws to adopt the Senate with a simple majority.

Johnson’s planning paid off very much. He changed quickly to get up working groups and to carry out the legislative process more than six months before the election. This enabled him and the Republicans of the Republicans to reach the ground at the beginning of the 119th congress. The successful coordination on Thursday was proof of Johnson’s foresight and its strength.
Of course, President Trump’s commitment was of crucial importance for the final success. The president made repeated overtures for ideological hardliners and centric holdouts. Blue State moderates the moderate to complete a deal state and local tax deductions (Salt), among other things, while the House Freedom Caucus was looking for assurances in deficit consumption. President Trump held several hours of meeting in the White House. And in the sprint to the finish line, the president made a rare trip to Capitol Hill before the vote. This was a gesture of good will to signal his support and of course keep the feet of the fence on the fire.
Everything that was of crucial importance for the passage of the calculation. President Trump and spokesman Johnson managed to keep this historically small and unruly GOP conference on the right track. They cleverly managed contradictory concerns from the party. The saber ratt lasted up to the last hours. In the end, Trump and Johnson never blinked.

In many ways, Johnson is the ideal addition to Trump’s difficult approach to trading. President Trump lives from confrontation, and Johnson is methodological and reflective. The conversible young speaker is thoughtful and thoughtful. He really takes care of and is interested in the concerns of his colleagues. These properties are rooted in its deep Christian faith.

They are the exact characteristics that have brought him a reservoir of good will at the GOP conference that many of its predecessors have never enjoyed. This helps him to have the hammer under one of the slimest majorities in American history.
As rep. Richard Hudson put it after the vote: “He is different from every spokesman with whom I worked with. I knew Boehner. I knew Paul Ryan. There is authenticity … there is a humility. It just gets through.”
This goodwill has translated into a number of legislative victories. Under the leadership of spokesman Johnson, the Republicans of House have victory after the victory against the most important law of national security supplements up to successive state financing calculations, until the House House Household was dissolved, which have prepared the stage for the great beautiful bill. In more than 28 non-party-line votes in the house, he only suffered three defects. This is a really remarkable performance in today’s House GOP.

President Trump has dominated the national political scene for over a decade. Johnson is and will continue to be the strongest ally of the President in the Congress. Together they are America’s most impressive team.
The Republicans still have a lot to do to bring the “a big beautiful bill” into the law. The Senate will undoubtedly continue to test Johnson’s speaker.
But this week proves that Johnson is the man for the moment. This week he has proven that he is one of the most effective speakers in American history.
