How the spending fight could decide Johnson's future

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

40% : Meanwhile, Johnson also has to work to grow his majority come November and keep Trump happy, given his relationship with the former president could be critical in shoring up conservative support.
39% : When those warnings turned into an actual ouster effort, led by Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.), Trump helped Johnson at the time, publicly calling for Republicans to keep the speaker in power.
30% : Trump, for his part, has publicly urged Republicans to shut down the government if they don't get their citizenship voting bill.
18% : Some of Johnson's biggest critics are trying to force his hand by lobbying Trump to push for the conservative-favored plan or endorse a shutdown, a reminder that the speaker isn't the only one in the conference who has connections to the former president.
11% : Greene told the Washington Examiner last week that she has repeatedly spoken to Trump about a potential government shutdown if Johnson doesn't attach conservative policy demands like the noncitizen voting bill, known as the SAVE Act, to the stopgap spending bill.
