Mike Johnson pretends not to have heard of 50-state abortion ban he co-sponsored

The American anti-abortion lobby continues to display all of the moral integritude you would expect of a movement that is permanently tied to Donald Trump:
Tapper: If Trump wins and you keep the majority, will you bring the national abortion ban up for a vote?
Johnson: I don't even know what you're talking about

WE’RE NOT SUPPOSED TO TALK ABOUT THIS UNTIL AFTER THE ELECTION! IT’S SETTLED LAW! BENGHAZI EMAILS!
As always, pay attention to what Republicans do rather than what they say when they’re cornered:
State House Republicans in Arizona on Wednesday scuttled another effort to repeal the state’s 1864 law banning abortion, defying pressure from prominent Republicans, including former President Donald J. Trump, who had urged them to toss the ban that many voters viewed as extreme and archaic.
“The last thing we should be doing today is rushing a bill through the legislative process to repeal a law that has been enacted and reaffirmed by the Legislature several times,” House Speaker Ben Toma, a Republican, said as he blocked an effort to vote on the repeal.
You see out there it’s the 2020s, but in the Republican house it’s 1864.
