House Speaker Mike Johnson is fighting for his job this week. Today's setback gives him a sense for how difficult — and lonely — it will be if he wins.Read the room: Johnson's rank-and-file aren't taking his Plan A seriously ... his top members are pointing fingers over who's to blame ... worst of all, the former president reserves the right to blindside him.Why it matters: Those dynamics will only increase if Donald Trump wins back the presidency and Republicans maintain their House majority.Johnson knows he can't pass a funding bill with partisan policy positions.But he also knows he has to get caught trying.Zoom in: The speaker is back in the same caretaker's hot seat he occupied before Democrats saved his job over aid for Ukraine.Johnson couldn't even muscle through his Plan A — a six-month spending stopgap to avoid a government shutdown that would be paired with legislation to require proof of citizenship to register to vote — this week before Trump blindsided him.Johnson told us he and Trump are on the same page. It's hard to read the former president's post and agree.Tensions are mounting among Johnson's top deputies, with some fingers pointing at House Majority Whip Tom Emmer (R-Minn.), we have learned.GOP lawmakers privately say there's a pattern here: "This seems like a long line of tough bills that Emmer hasn't whipped," a top House GOP lawmaker told us."Emmer is failing as whip with multiple bills collapsing on the House floor. The whip operation is non-existent at this point," a senior GOP lawmaker told us.The other side: "It's bullshit to blame Tom," a top House Republican told us.Johnson never had the votes to pass the stopgap bill — and even if Emmer manages to twist the arms of public "no" votes, it's dead-on-arrival in the Senate."Emmer and Guy [Reschenthaler] are the only folks who have whipped me ... They make a pretty compelling argument for it," Rep. Tim Burchett (R-Tenn.) told us.Reality check: Johnson's Plan A has been a farce from the start.Now Johnson's own members are waiting on it to fail so he can turn to a Plan B he insists doesn't exist.🔮 House Republicans expect to see Plan B as a six-month stopgap, without the SAVE Act.When that fails, they expect to inevitably cave to the Senate on a deal that pushes negotiations into the lame duck.

At least three of Vice President Kamala Harris' prospective running mates already have members of their state's congressional delegation pressing their cases from Capitol Hill.Why it matters: Several lawmakers, eager to see their states represented at the top of the ticket, told Axios they are privately making their argument to the Harris campaign or plan to do so.Pennsylvania Gov. Josh ShapiroRep. Matt Cartwright said he is "just getting started" in urging the Harris campaign to pick Shapiro, saying he has "mentioned it to a few people, I think, low down in the Harris campaign."Rep. Susan Wild said in a statement Shapiro would be a "phenomenal" choice, adding: "I have communicated this to the Harris campaign. I do not know if the Governor is interested in the role, but I hope he is for the sake of our country."And Rep. Madeleine Dean said she doesn't think it is appropriate to make an endorsement but said Shapiro has been a "superb leader" who often outperforms other Democrats on the same ballot.North Carolina Gov. Roy CooperRep. Kathy Manning said Cooper "would be a great choice," and that "if anybody [from the Harris campaign] asks me, I'm happy to tell them."Rep. Jeff Jackson said Cooper is "awesome" and that he is "planning on" making that view known to the Harris campaign.Rep. Wiley Nickel said Cooper is "absolutely the best choice that Vice President Harris could make, a very popular governor in a swing state," but suggested he is not actively pushing Cooper to the campaign.Arizona Sen. Mark KellyRep. Greg Stanton (D-Ariz.) touted Kelly's record, popularity with independents and Republicans and his ability to raise money, but declined to say whether he would make that case privately to the Harris campaign."Obviously, Arizona is a critical battleground state, so if he were to be selected that would immediately put ... Arizona in a likely winning position," Stanton told Axios in a phone interview.Between the lines: One other prospective pick, Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear, is at a disadvantage on this front as his deep red state has just one Democrat, Rep. Morgan McGarvey, in its congressional delegation.McGarvey's spokesperson told Axios that the congressman, like his contemporaries in other states, has advocated for Beshear in local media interviewsThe other side: Several Republican lawmakers argued that VP picks from their states wouldn't help Democrats the way the party is hoping."I think, no matter what, Trump and Vance are going to win [Pennsylvania] no matter who Democrats put on the ticket, because at this point it's all about the platform," said Rep. Guy Reschenthaler (R-Pa.).Rep. Richard Hudson (R-N.C.) said of Cooper: "He's going to try and claim credit for bills that he vetoed for years. And once people learn that record, I think he'll be very unpopular."Go deeper: Where VP Kamala Harris stands on hot-button issues
