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?”

I might suggest in the DC region....various third-parties...might be intercepting phone-calls and recording them. Wouldn’t shock me if both the Russians and Chinese have an operation each.
Kevin McCarthy has always been nothing more than a slicker version of consummate rino John Boehner. McCarthy was selected by the same people who had put Boehner in power.
These guys are the GOP establishment.
Scumbag politician does scummy things. News at 11.
We saw McCarthy do nothing after the Election, so it makes sense.
I doubt she was in Wyoming when she recorded the conversation.
Jeez louise, you think Trump doesn’t bloody well know that jack wagon is Deep State?!
McCarthy is just another Paul Ryan.
Do you think she was in Wyoming when she recorded this? She was likely in DC
“No primary opponent. It’s on us. Not even a truck driver like the NJ fella.”
Doesn’t matter, he’d win the Primary. The KEY is keeping him out of the leadership. Hopefully EVERY House Republican office holder and candidate will be forced to take a stand on him.
On its surface this is just McCarthy being realistic. However, the JFK assassination’s biggest message is to look close first.
It’s just D.C. it’s a war zone it’s why so many on both sides hated Trump he wasn’t a team player but a team leader their egos couldn’t handle it but he was right on all accounts.
One party consent in DC
