Kevin McCarthy and Liz Cheney plotted with each other to compel the 45th President's resignation.
GOP establishment leader Kevin McCarthy plotted with Liz Cheney to force President Trump out of office by convincing him to resign. The conversation was captured in audio that was later leaked to reporters from The New York Times, and now resurfaces as McCarthy faces massive conservative resistance to his speakership campaign.
“Are you hearing that he might resign? Is there any reason to think that might happen?” Liz Cheney asked Kevin McCarthy in the audio recording, which came as uni-party politicians scrambled to make anti-Trump political hay out of the January 6th, 2021 demonstrations against election fraud and the certification of contested election results.
“I’ve had a few discussions,” McCarthy replied. “My gut tells me no. I’m seriously thinking of having that conversation with him tonight. I haven’t talked to him in a couple [of] days.”
“From what I know of him, I mean you guys all know him too, do you think he’d ever back away?” McCarthy asked, as he plotted with Liz Cheney and others to push President Trump out of the Oval Office, and put the finishing touches on the steal of 2020.
“The only discussions I would have with him is that I think this will pass, and it would be my recommendation [Trump] should resign,” McCarthy went on to say, adding that he also had to speak with the Democrats, and get some guidance from his uni-party colleagues.
“I mean, that would be my take, but I don’t think he would take it. But I don’t know,” said McCarthy in the flashback audio.
Audio: Kevin McCarthy and Liz Cheney Plot to Push President Trump Out of Office:
Tape: McCarthy said he'll push former President Donald Trump to resign after Jan 6
The audio was released earlier this year, ahead of the midterms, and mainly floated around Democrat media circles, as the left showed off McCarthy’s remarks like a trophy of disloyalty towards President Trump and the American People.
Before the anti-Trump McCarthy audio was released, the comments were cited in New York Times reporting, which McCarthy claimed was “totally false and wrong,” before audio proved that it was he, actually, who was “totally false and wrong” in denying he’d plotted with Liz Cheney to get rid of President Trump.

McCarthy has many miles to travel before convincing conservatives that he will keep ALL of his pre-midterm promises.
We can’t afford another neutered Speaker, like Paul Ryan and John Boehner.

Kevin McCarthy?
Yet another life long career professional politician. He should be jailed and prosecuted.

No surprise to have hyperbolic nonsense like this from this publication, however, and based on the comments, the power of suggestion certainly works.
That said, McCarthy is hardly an inspiring choice - he's just a boilerplate politician.

The RNC has no authority or role to “dump” congressional leadership.
To: SoConPubbie
It doesn’t sound like any serious plotting.
But then there’s not really massive opposition to McCarthy as speaker either.
Or if there is, it doesn’t matter.
There was massive dislike for McConnell and he still won for minority leader.

McCarthy thinks he’s next inline so he automatically gets the job

"We can’t afford another neutered Speaker, like Paul Ryan and John Boehner."
If House Republicans vote to make McCarthy speaker, then they will be voting to neuter themselves as well.

It’s a willful delusion if you this Republican Party is going to have real investigations and be aggressive like the Dems in pursuing Corruption and Political weaponry posing as Corporations.
They want Tim Scott who is a gay RINO who always says we need to go along with the FBi and other convenient beliefs that aid Dems and the Fake Media machine.
That’s the game. Michael Steele, all over again.

President Trump fought, not only the Deep State / Clinton coup, driven by soetoro and the entire fedgov, Big Tech, the MSM, but the congressional leaders of his own party.
He never gave up.
He fought for the American people.
