Trump to Meet with GOP Leader Kevin McCarthy in Florida
New York Post ^ | January 27,2021 | By Steven Nelson and Ebony Bowden

Posted on 01/27/2021 6:05:45 PM PST by Hojczyk

Former President Donald Trump is expected to meet on Thursday with Republican House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, sources confirm to The Post.

McCarthy (R-Calif.) was a close Trump ally during his term, but criticized Trump’s actions on Jan. 6 when a crowd stormed the Capitol to disrupt certification of President Biden’s victory.

The meeting in Florida is expected to be a first step toward conservative unity as the Senate takes up Trump’s impeachment trial next month.

Only five of 50 Republican senators voted to allow the trial on Tuesday, strongly suggesting Democrats won’t find the 17 Republican votes needed to convict Trump and then ban him from holding office.

McCarthy argued against impeaching Trump, but also floated a censure.

“The president bears responsibility for Wednesday’s attack on Congress by mob rioters. He should have immediately denounced the mob when he saw what was unfolding,” McCarthy said Jan. 13.

Trump is expected to remain a powerful figure in the Republican Party and could seek a non-consecutive second term as president in 2024.

like Gladiator, Trump is offering his hand once... if the RINO McCarthy wants to be speaker (I don’t think he does), he better be MAGA.

Why? McCarthy voted to authorize unlimited voter fraud, and stuck up for Liz Cheney. Why would President Trump meet with this POS?

Trump should tell this jerk: “Kevin, you have proven that you do not deal in the FACTS. Furthermore you have proven you are disloyal to America for perpetuating disunity, and you have proven you are disloyal to me personally.

Therefore, I am going to do everything in my power to get Jim Jordan as House Minority Leader. Kevin’s, you are finished in politics.”

Just because 45 voted that the trial is unconstitutional is no guarantee some won't vote against Trump. I doubt they get 17 but they could get more than 5. Let's hope not but I would not rule it out.

It could turn into a "well since we're here ..." kind of thing. If they made the vote secret it would remind me of a scene from a movie long ago.

"Just push the button and he can never run for President again. You will never have to mess with Trump again. "

"No one will ever know?"

"Right. Just push the button".

"No one will ever know."

"Right. Push the button."

Maybe because he's coming from a position of power and intends to get his pound of flesh. I certainly hope so.

If Obama can have a shadow Presidency, so can President Trump.

Kevin McCarthy will arrive to meet with former president Donald Trump Thursday. To set a jovial mood, Kevin plans to first stop at the local McDonald’s and pick up a few Cokes Fries & Filet of Fish sandwiches, knowing Mr. Trump likes these specific snacks. They will start off talking about something like Golf.

““The president bears responsibility for Wednesday’s attack on Congress by mob rioters. He should have immediately denounced the mob when he saw what was unfolding,” McCarthy said Jan. 13.”

Too much John Boehner and Paul Ryan have rubbed off on you, Kevin. You need to call in a good exorcist.

What could these two possibly discuss? The GOPee colluded with the Marxocrats, including McCarthy, to roll over and let the fraud stand. During Trump’s term the GOPee did everything they could to stymie any positive initiative Trump tried to accomplish. The illegal alien invasion continued apace, the wall remains unbuilt. The much ballyhooed approvals of “conservative” judges didn’t amount to squat when the electoral crisis confronted the USSC judges as every one of Trump’s picks refused to lift a finger to stop the steal. The majority GOPee senate voted overwhelmingly against electoral integrity at the critical moment. Even the majority GOPee stste legislatures didn’t do a damn thing when they could have stopped the steal. It takes a special kind of insanity to adwant to continue to affiliate with the GOPee any longer. Trump told us vote for all sorts of GOPee schmucks, qyuislings, and crooks fir the sake of party unity when he was president. I simply will not vote for anr GOPee puke ever again, even if Trump says “Pretty please, with sugar on top.”
