Trump — I’m 100% backing Kevin McCarthy for House Speaker…

MIAMI — President Trump told the conservatives currently withholding support from House leader Kevin McCarthy to stand down in an exclusive interview with Breitbart News.

“I like him,” Trump said of McCarthy, before teeing off on those working against him including Matt Gaetz, Andy Biggs, Matt Rosendale, Bob Good, and Ralph Norman. Trump warned that there could be serious consequences if McCarthy does not get the gavel and it would make Washington worse for conservatives.

“I think it’s a very dangerous game that’s being played,” Trump said. “It’s a very dangerous game. Some bad things could happen. Look, we had Boehner and he was a strange person but we ended up with Paul Ryan who was ten times worse. Paul Ryan was an incompetent speaker. I think he goes down as the worst speaker in history. We took out Boehner—and a group of people, some of whom are the same, and they’re very good friends of mine. All those people are very good friends of mine.”

Well, Mr. Trump, you can run for Congress and vote for McCarthy. Otherwise you don’t matter here.

Agree. McRINO - N (Where N is far too large a number) is NOT needed.

Uh oh. This will get very sticky for some. Although, I am sure they will do some incredible acrobatic body movement to make this sound awesome.

Gonna have to be like the game of Twister ‘cause I think this is a stupid move and the McCarthy is a RINO. Trump is losing it.

Don’t go there with me, Trump is still my favorite for the nomination in 2024. But now it’s not based as much on his promises, but rather it’s based on just who I’d be in bed with if I supported anyone else (starting with the Lincoln Project).

“McCarthy is a RINO”

I concur. Why exactly is this a stupid move, and what is the superior one?

Wow! We tried to get rid of the RINO swamp but looks like the turds 💩 continue to float on top of the cesspool. We’ll never be able to rid ourselves of these anti MAGA POS! Thanks a lot trump …you have no discernment. Sooner or later they will continue their backstabbing ways once elected. The cake eating bitch HAS gotta go! Please don’t give her a lifeline! You are about to piss off a lot of your base. Not good.

Probably not an endorsement McCarthy would want.

House Republicans plan to pass a three-month continuing resolution to fund the government this month and will push any fight over President Donald Trump’s border wall until later this year, House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy said Tuesday.”

I don’t care what his reasons are. I don’t know enough to second-guess Trump so if that’s what he wants I’m for it
