Appearing on conservative radio host Jay Weber’s show on Monday, Johnson praised Graham’s take on McConnell’s Senate floor speech, saying that he “pretty well associates” himself with Graham’s assessment the day before.

“You’ve got (Senate Minority Leader) McConnell voting not guilty, not to convict,” Johnson said. “But then just providing a scathing speech on floor of the Senate that does not reflect, I think, the majority of our conference.”

“So you’ve got our leader out there really representing himself — and that’s his right to do — but at the same time, he has to realize as our leader, what he says reflects on us,” Johnson said. “I didn’t particularly like it.”
Asked where McConnell’s speech leaves the GOP, Johnson proceeded to attack Democrats for their “radical agenda” and said that the Republican Party “can’t afford to lose in 2022” now that Trump is out of office.
