Speaker Johnson on the Midterms: ‘This Is Common Sense Versus Crazy’

EXCERPT:

JOHNSON: “We have the lowest violent crime rate in 126 years, the biggest decline in prescription drugs in 60 years. You’ve got the most secure border in a half century. Not a single illegal alien released into the country in 16 straight months. And the small business incentives that we put in, the pro-growth policies we put into all the legislation, all that was working just as expected. First quarter, economy begins to take off. Go roll the tape. We were all talking about it. And then the Iran conflict began. Now, we had to do it. The president’s convinced of that. We are. The world is a safer place because it was done. But let’s put that aside and talk about what’s going forward. In this election cycle, in 35 days, do you want to put Democrats back in charge who gave you $5 gasoline, who the Democrats said, Joe Biden himself and all of them, they want to end fossil fuels. Is that going to return those policies? Is that going to bring gas prices down? Of course not. They want to reopen the borders. We closed the borders. I mean, this is law and order. This is common sense versus crazy. That’s what’s on the ballot in 35 days. You have to keep the team in charge. That is putting the conditions in place for the economy to do better for everybody."
