Mike Johnson: “77 million people voted for [President Trump] and 74.8…”

“And President Trump delivered a mandate that the people gave him a mandate. He delivered a resounding victory. He won the Electoral College, as we know, soundly, as well as a popular vote. 77 million people voted for [President Trump] and 74.8 million voted for House Republicans, the largest vote total we've ever had.
