Rep. Thomas Massie emphatically stated he will not vote for Speaker Mike Johnson under any circumstances, saying, "you can pull all my fingernails out... I am not voting for Mike Johnson tomorrow."
Massie criticized Johnson's abilities, remarking, "Even if he thinks he's going to be the guy who does what Trump wants him to do—he's not that good at it."
With several Republicans withholding support, Massie remains the only one publicly declaring opposition to Johnson, showing significant internal divisions within the party.
Amidst ongoing negotiations, Massie indicated that Johnson is unwilling to engage in backroom deals, complicating the effort to secure votes for his re-election.
