So McCarthy (the GOP leader of the House) is now aligning himself with the RNC (and Trump), which censured Cheney.

Meanwhile, the GOP leader of the Senate, Mitch McConnell, supports Liz Cheney's reelection and was VERY upset at the RNC censure.

What’s to stop a local Bakersfield truck driver to step up and challenge him? This only helps. No skin off his a$$.

I wonder if anyone, including Kevin McCarthy, thinks his endorsement matters. How many WY voters will that sway? On balance, will it help or hurt? Probably neither. I would say that it’s a good sign, but he’s going to do whatever is politically expedient. He lives with a pollster, after all.

I don’t trust either of them.

CHENEY MUST GO!
She’s a total embarrassment and her statements get nuttier every week

What kind of leader aligns himself with a sr member who goes so far out of her way to show contempt for the base?

McCarthy is just faking it. He is worried he won’t be voted in as speaker so he is attempting to appear to be on board with MAGA, but he is a classic bait and switch aka, Ryan and Boehner. Once in as speaker, he will punish MAGA, consolidate power and then do nothing, ever, for us until the Rats take over again, well what he will do is assist Rats.

Mitch might become Speaker this year, but he’s a relic. It’s just a matter of time before he retires.

This guy?

Kevin McCarthy has conceded that January 6th was a ‘violent insurrection,’ saying he agreed with Mitch McConnell’s description of that day
