Mike Johnson Says He'll Talk SCOTUS Into Overturning Trump Verdicts

Speaker of the House Mike Johnson told Fox and Friends that he knows Supreme Court justices personally and claims they will set the record straight on Trump's felony convictions. By "setting the record straight" he means they will overturn them without any constitutional basis for doing so.

Convicted felon Trump was an ordinary citizen when he committed these crimes and not a sitting US President.

JONES: Do you think that the Supreme Court has a duty to step in, since this will impact, um, you know, the election? I know we want to act like he's just a normal guy, but he's a leading presidential candidate. The voters should know what's going to happen here. So what do you see playing out in the legal system?

JOHNSON: Well, there's a lot of developments yet to come, but I do think, I do believe the Supreme Court should step in. Obviously, this is totally unprecedented, and it's dangerous to our system. I mean, we've all discussed this before, and you all talk about it all the time.

This is diminishing the American people's faith in our system of justice itself. And to maintain a republic, you have to have that. People have to believe that justice is fair, that there's equal justice under law. They don't see that right now.
