CNN Catches Mike Johnson Making Ad Nauseam Claim About Trump Over And Over
HuffPost
The House speaker has a catch phrase for the president's doings — and now it's on a damning reel.
A CNN supercut on Monday captured House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) repeatedly saying “I don’t know anything about that” or variations thereof in response to President Donald Trump’s controversial moments. (Watch the video below.)
“NewsNight” host Abby Phillip shared the compilation after a discussion about Trump’s insistence on “60 Minutes” that he did not know who crypto magnate Changpeng Zhao was after pardoning him. Zhao pleaded guilty to money-laundering violations. Perhaps to avoid comment about Trump’s sketchy claim, Johnson claimed (or feigned) ignorance.
Phillip zeroed in on Johnson’s knack for selective unawareness ― or “common refrain” — on Trump matters. “Apparently, news doesn’t get to Capitol Hill,” she said.
The reel of Johnson’s greatest “know nothing” hits covers Immigration and Customs Enforcement activities, a pardoned Jan. 6 rioter getting arrested and more.
But the refrain remains.
