'So incredibly tone deaf!' Speaker's throwaway comment dismays GOP strategist

Following a press conference conducted by House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) where he attempted to sow doubt about the Jeffrey Epstein files bill to be voted on Tuesday, GOP strategist Susan Del Percio asked for time to call out the Republican leader.

At the conclusion of her appearance with MS NOW host Ann Cabrera, Del Percio interrupted and remarked, “Just one thing I want to add was you carried Speaker Johnson's comments in the last hour, and at the end he said something that was so incredibly tone-deaf. And I think this is something that's going to dog Republicans and the president because he said something similar.”

“And I'm paraphrasing,” she continued. “He said, ‘Now we could get back to the important business.’"

“This is important!” she exclaimed. “And that's what Donald Trump and Johnson have completely missed on and makes me wonder, like how much they're going to keep missing and taking missteps throughout this process.”

“I’m sure the Democrats would love to talk about the economy,” Cabrerra quipped which caused her guests to laugh.
