Roy Blunt: ‘Surprised’ McCarthy Suggested Trump Would Ever Resign
Breitbart ^ | 04/24/2022 | Pam Key

Senator Roy Blunt (R-MO) said Sunday on NBC’s “Meet the Press” that he was “surprised” to hear House Minority Kevin McCarthy (D-CA) make the suggestion then-President Donald Trump would resign after the riot at the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021, when he only had a few days left to serve.

Guest host Kristen Welker said, “Senator, let me ask you about the big story this week impacting your party. This is a new audiotape we heard from the top Republican in the House, Leader Kevin McCarthy. Let’s begin with revelations in the new book ‘This Will Not Pass,’ the authors released audio in which we hear McCarthy days after January 6 saying this about then-President Trump. Take a listen, and I’ll your reaction on the other side.”

Shut up Blunt. And move to another state, ok?

Maybe Illinois, because you are sold out.

Or maybe Arkansas, because you are a hick.

(Sorry AR).

I’ll concede that McCarthy is a knucklehead, but this whole narrative is a democrat/media smokescreen. Trial subpoenas were issued for DNC and Clinton campaign staff and there was ZERO media coverage - but the McCarthy tale was covered breathlessly.

What McCarthy apparently said on the FULL tape, not the NBC version, was that if there were the votes in the Senate to remove President Trump, he should resign. Well, yes. That would save the country a lot of trouble. Barring that, no way.

How can anyone believe anything McCarthy says in the future?

And you were expecting what? Shrewd, fair, in-depth and thorough reportage?

McCarthy shot off his big brave pie-hole because he wanted to sound tough, and now he's too gutless even to own up.

He is anything but a leader.

Why do these entrenched RINO politicians think that going on these Sunday legacy media “ news “ shows improves their credibility ?

It’s like mice crawling into a cat coven.

Its what there Beltway PR advisors tell them to do that will burnish their image out in the boonies. Of course these policos never stop to think “What do these inside the Betlway PR gurus know about the boonies?”.

Younger Candice Bergen was hot!

Her ugly soul hadn’t remade her appearance yet.

Kevin McCarthy cannot become speaker. He’d just be another Pelosie.

Praise the Lord that RINO Blunt is resigning. He know’s he wouldn’t win again in MO. I’m from MO and the “Show Me State” knows he is a Deep State Snake!

“his ventriloquist act was so popular he had a radio show.”

He really wasn’t much of a ventriloquist, his lips always moved! Why would you have a ventriloquist on the radio? Strange!

Strange - how is Blunt on the news being interviewed? We were told he was in jail. Evidence for this was a photograph of him with his hands behind his back - “proof” of a military ‘sting operation’, we were told.
