In an article at Real Clear Politics Phillip Wegmann writes, in part, about an apology Speaker Johnson made to Joe Biden at the State of the Union Address.

Apparently Johnson felt the need to apologize to Biden about ‘eye-roll memes’ or something.

Here’s what Wegmann writes:

This past March, Johnson felt he owed Biden an apology. Seated just over the president’s shoulder during the State of the Union address, the speaker couldn’t mask his expressions of exhaustion and exasperation as Biden laid into Republicans. The two next met on Capitol Hill for the Friends of Ireland luncheon where Johnson toasted Biden as “America’s most famous Irishman.” On loan from the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library, his pint glass was the same one Reagan used during a 1984 visit to Ireland. The Guinness the Southern Baptist speaker drank was non-alcoholic.

Johnson pulled Biden aside to “apologize for the eye-roll memes that went around the world.” The president laughed, then told the speaker he was glad Johnson was better behaved than Nancy Pelosi had been during the speeches of his predecessor: “I’m just grateful you didn’t rip my speech up.” The speaker replied, “Well, Mr. President, don’t think my friends back home didn’t want me to light it on fire.”

Why does Johnson feel like every other RINO speaker we’ve ever had? What is it about the role of being speaker that wusses Republicans out and makes them so weak???
