In a leaked recording of Kevin McCarthy on a call with Liz Cheney and other House Republicans, the Minority Leader told Cheney that he would counsel Trump to resign back on January 10, 2021.
“I think [impeachment resolutions] will pass, and it would be my recommendation you should resign,” McCarthy said he would tell Trump before further adding, “what he did is unacceptable. Nobody can defend that and nobody should defend it.”
Liz Cheney had pressed McCarthy about whether Trump could possibly choose to resign on his own: “Is there any chance? Are you hearing that he might resign? Is there any reason to think that might happen?”
McCarthy then admitted that this was a topic he has “had a few discussions” about with others. “My gut tells me no,” he said. “I’m seriously thinking of having that conversation with him tonight…Um, from what I know of him, I mean you guys all know him too, do you think he’d ever back away? But what I think I’m going to do, is I’m going to call him.”
The minority leader then explained he would appeal to Trump’s reason regarding an impending impeachment resolution. “This, this is what I think, we know it’ll pass the House. I think there’s a chance it’ll pass the Senate, even when he’s gone. Um, and I think there’s a lot of ramifications for that.” One such ramification would be that Trump could never hold federal office again.
McCarthy also indicated that he believed Twitter and Facebook should delete the accounts of lawmakers who were supporting Trump’s claim of a rigged election. “We can’t put up with that,” he said. “Can’t they take their Twitter accounts away, too?”

McCarthy needs to resign tomorrow morning.
😀😃👍
Yeah. I watched the clip Piers Morgan put out, too.
Shouldn’t McCarthy resign, given what he’s on record as having said?
So what do you think of what he clearly said?
A dem?????
People around Bakersfield are not happy with him anyway, does nothing for district
you betcha.
They act like January 6th was a big deal. It was just a protest. Jerks.
Waiting for a story to be complete should not imply anything. It may very well be exactly what it appears to be. Lately, though, I just don’t commit until I see if what my eyes and ears are telling me is what is actually true. No love lost on McCarthy by me.

You don’t have to be smart to figure this out.
There are like three outcasts of the party that dare to even criticize Biden. The Republican Senate protected Biden and ran interference for his Election.
There were more Republicans publicly questioning Trump’s stability than there are questioning the Idiot bumbling Biden spouting gibberish.
To this day, people here defend Mitch McConnell and his senate that refused to issue any subpoenas to investigate Joe’s Foreign Cash Op that has been pretty public since 2014.
How can so many be blind?

The same people were silent or supportive of the BLM Mobs burning cities and terrorizing people.
The Republicans went off when Trump moved the BLM mob back away from the WH when most of the City was burning. Protest was important, they said.
Just like Baltimore, give them room to riot.

Time for new blood.
Jim Jordan for Speaker of the House.
Rand Paul for Senate Majority Leader.
McCarthy and McConnell are both weasels.
I would think so. He showed his contempt for Trump and his career should be over
.
McCarthy’s very close friend (living together) is Frank Luntz.
Luntz hates Trump and plotted against him.
Pence tried to get Luntz into a critical Admin position long after Pence knew Luntz was a Never Trumper.

mccarthy is aiming for ryan’s trophy as worst GOP speaker/leader in history.
