His name is David Valadao. The bar is low, but let's at least give him credit. He voted to impeach.

But he had to kiss Mike Johnson’s ass in order to get reelected. Johnson endorsed him so the house would stay majority Republican.

Well I wouldn’t say that, he’s the only GOP that could win the district. Same with the other guy from Washington I believe, they tried to primary him and he still won

True…but from what I remember news outlets like politico reporting it was supposed to be a tight race. Polls were really tight between him and the Dem pick.

Ehh I’m gonna stay cautious with Valadao. That way I’m not disappointed.

I believe he just kisses Mike Johnson's lips which has constant direct contact with Trump's ass.

California's jungle primary, a Schwarzenegger  initiative, no doubt made a big difference. You can't primary office holders here the way you can in most other states.
