Politico: “Johnson had to battle for months with factions of his own conference, and with the Senate, at multiple key junctures. But he plowed through and moved a host of Trump’s campaign promises closer to the president’s desk after a final flurry of negotiations and a rare, overnight session on the House floor.”
Said Johnson: “There was a few moments over the last week when it looked like the thing might fall apart.”
“In essence, Johnson spent months fighting fires. His job, in conjunction with other GOP leaders, was to manage flare-up after flare-up as various groups inside the House ranks battled over trillions in tax cuts and politically explosive reductions to social safety-net spending.”
Washington Post: Trump and Johnson notch big win with House passage of sweeping tax bill.
