The leader of the Republican caucus in the House of Representatives told colleagues Monday that President Donald Trump bears some responsibility for Wednesday’s riot at the Capitol, two sources told NBC News.

Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy of California also did not rule out supporting a motion to censure Trump for his actions, according to the report.

Before his conference call Monday with House Republicans, McCarthy had not said that Trump was in any way to blame for the riot, which left five people dead, including a Capitol Police officer killed by the mob of the president’s supporters.

The Republican party is committing suicide right in front of our eyes. God, please provide a miracle to save our country.

"Primary his ass!

There's that normalcy bias again.. You know as well as I it will be IMPOSSIBLE for ANY conservative to EVER get elected to office from this point forward. Republicans MAYBE, as in RINO Republicans, but conservatives? FORGET IT.

There is only ONE solution for restoring FAIR ELECTIONS to the United States of America and you also know what that is. That which we shall not dare speak of in today's COMMUNIST AMERIKA under the Ayatollah Kamallahdullah.

McCarthy was/is a nasty swamp creature. This is proof for those that may now be shocked.

Kevin, with that attitude you’d keep the GOP in a minority in the House forever.

You just don’t get it. Trump is not the real target of the Dims. No, everything positive that you have ever supported Trump on is the real target. Trump is only the foil for targeting all Conservative expression. That you don’t see it is part of why the GOP is a minority in the House.

The death of the GOP is a necessary step in saving our country.
They have been obstructing us for 30 years while pretending to be representing us.

I now regret immensely every time, every election that I pulled that straight lever for Republicans.

Never AGAIN — NEVER, EVER AGAIN!!!!!!

I may even vote straight Democrat next time ...if we’re going to see it go downhill, let’s just get it over with and rebuild once it all self implodes.

Trump summoned supporters to DC and then directed them to go to the Capitol Building.
What crimes they then did is their own doing.

I would ban all political donations from non-persons.

That’s a reversal from how I used to feel about the issue, but then I didn’t realize how the Left has taken over our corporations.
