Now the question is will some of the Democrats support Johnson as Speaker when the R bomb throwers like MTG formally make the motion for him to step down? I think that would have had to be part of the backroom deals to get everything through.

And then he is also running the risk of getting primaried because he didn't do exactly what the Orange Fuhrer wanted.

I doubt they'll support Johnson. Because a couple of R representatives have signaled that they will resign if they attempt to remove Johnson. That would make Democrats the majority party. And they would be able to put forward their own candidate.

I think chances are that MTG may have an extreme fit of hysteria, and may suffocate on her uvula.
I really wonder how she gets through a normal day alive, considering her extreme insanity. How is she not committed?

I doubt she cares whether the package(s) pass or not.

She just wants attention, and being human clickbait, as opposed to governing and legislating.
