Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) said he told House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) that protesting President Trump’s trolling would “make it worse.”

“We live in a social media age, and people use it,” Johnson told MSNBC’s Ali Vitali in an interview that aired Monday. “I think President Trump uses it as effectively as anybody ever has.”

“And I told my friend Hakeem, who is my friend, I said, ‘Man, don't pay attention to it, don't respond to it, because it makes it worse,’” he added.
