But his is the #3 'conservative' district in Iowa. My bet is he is so popular up there he wouldn't need a party to run.

By 2018 Trump will be a bad memory and Johnson will be back as a pug.
You may remember his little splash in the news @ this time last year when he told a teacher that was complaining about Branstad's line item veto of school funding to "quit whining."
