“There is something happening in the country,” Speaker Mike Johnson said following former President Donald Trump’s meeting with congressional Republicans, noting that the former president brought an “energy” and “enthusiasm” to the conference, which has also been seen across the country.
“Many of us are traveling the country. I do it endlessly. I’ve been in 29 states and done events in 123 cities. We go to blue states and swing districts and everywhere in between, and there is something happening in the country,” Johnson said, stating that Trump repeated that phrase a number of times in his own remarks.

Johnson expressed confidence that Republicans are headed for a “great November,” but he made it clear that they “don’t take anything for granted.”
