Sen. Katie Britt (R-Ala.) said Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) reassured her that everything “will be fine” before she delivered the State of the Union response that has since been ridiculed online.
Britt spoke with Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) on his latest podcast episode that aired Wednesday, discussing her experience with preparing for the rebuttal and the scrutiny that immediately followed it. She said Johnson had called her to ask if she could deliver the response, telling her that she had nothing to worry about.
“And the funny thing is he’s like, you know, don’t worry about, you know, people are going to tell you horror stories about all of these things that happen and people’s career being blown up over it, and he’s like, ‘It’ll be fine. It’ll be fine,’” she said.
