Trump corrects record, says he hasn't endorsed McCarthy for speaker
Msn.com ^ | 6/19/22 | Daniel Chaitin

Former President Donald Trump made it clear that he has not endorsed anyone, including Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA), for speaker of the House.

Towards the end of a recent interview, Trump interjected to correct conservative talk show host Wayne Allyn Root after he said Trump endorsed McCarthy for speaker. "No I haven't," Trump said. "No, no, no. I haven't," he added through some crosstalk. "No, I endorsed him in his race. But I haven't endorsed anybody for speaker."

This is exactly how I interpreted his earlier remarks. Others disagreed. Glad Trump himself clarified it.

What about China Mitch?

Some of his Senate enforcements support candidates who have said will vote for Mitch. Trump must love McConnell more than he lets on.

I thought Trump had lost his mind when I heard he’d endorsed McCarthy.

I hope it’s true he has not.

McCarthy will still be elected Speaker because we will re-elect his 145 butt-boys that voted for Liz Cheney in Feb 2021.

Was it out of his own mouth? Just as the initial report through the media, this too is being reported through the same media.

I’ve not heard Trump say either statement.

You're right genius except this thread had nothing to do with the Senate or Mitch.

Apparently you would be much happier with any Democrat than with a Trump endorsement not of your choosing. Or maybe instead of Trump period.

Some of us aren't aware of your privy to all the inner workings of Trump.

Meanwhile let us in on your secret so we can tell where your head is.

Who would be your choices when you run?

Is that what you read me say? In case you’re confused. No.

I just don’t want the RINO jackass to be the house speaker controlling what bills come to committee and or to the floor for a vote.

Hope that helps.

McConnell is the bagmen for those that buy off US GOP Senators. He was installed as GOP Senate Majority Leader to control the purse strings of campaigns.

Most GOP Senators have to bow before McConnell. If they don’t, McConnell will fund others to primary them.

When Trump told the truth about McConnell, that he’s awful and a huge disappointment, it was to let certain powerbrokers know that Trump’s 75+ million strong voterbase is not enamored with McConnell and hence, their bribes and payouts involving McConnell may be a poor investment choice.

McConnell revealed his corruption with the trillions in Green New garbage passed to Biden.

He still needs 70 more votes.

I can agree on speakership. McCarthy is too swampy.
Good thing Trump made clear he did not endorse him for speaker. McCarthy is easy win for congress seat.

Amazing! what a great thing.

I trust Pres Trump on this one

McCarthy is worse than

that self serving rhino Paul Ryan

they both are grifters and out for

themselves.

A sidebar- Adam Schiff has his eye on

Nanny’ exit . In Schiffs delusional

mind he is posturing & ready to assume

he is a su*k up and has allied himself

with Nan - over these past years .

Nan uses him with all his falsehoods.

She would never let him get close

to her reign of obfuscation, lies

and Gaslighter In Chief.

He ‘ s been done years ago like

the pencil necked he is. Schiff thinks

he arrived on the scene as a unicorn.

eewwww... he’ s a lying haughty, virture

signally leper
