The former president’s focus is expected to be on tax cuts, cracking down on illegal immigration, and reducing the regulatory power of government agencies.
House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) said a second Trump administration will be like the first, but “on turbo” mode.
Former President Donald Trump “learned a lot of painful lessons in his first term,” Mr. Johnson said in a March 15 interview with The New Yorker. This included realizing there were those within government agencies “working against him.” Once President Trump gets back to office, his second term will be similar to the first one but “on turbo,” he said. “I think we are going to be right off to the races.”Mr. Johnson was elected as the House Speaker last year after former speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) was booted from the post. In the interview, Mr. Johnson told the publication that he “considered himself the first genuinely ‘pro-Trump’ Republican leader in Congress.”
The House Speaker stressed that he supports President Trump due to his policies. “What we accomplished in those first two years of his Presidency is amazing.” During that time, he said, the United States had the “greatest economy in the history of the world.”
