Mike Johnson took a rare break from sitting on the fence to deliver a brimstone and fire speech about the destruction of the country if the GOP doesn’t win the midterms.

Speaking at Turning Point USA’s summit in Phoenix on Sunday, the House Speaker was impassioned as he warned about what was on the other side of the Republican “split screen.” “On the other side of that split screen and—quick summary—you see the radical left Marxist Democrats, and they are being overrun by the Marxists, they truly are. This is not your father‘s Democratic Party anymore.”

Johnson, 53, continued: “And they want to dismantle the very foundations of our Republic and everything that we all stand for and that Charlie Kirk evangelized. “Everything that’s been said here, everything is on the line in the midterms of 2026. And we have much more to do.”

In a paranoid vision of the future, Johnson stated: “If we lose the House majority, the radical left—as you’ve already heard—is going to impeach President Trump, they are going to create absolute chaos. We cannot let that happen, and I know you won’t. I know you won’t.”
