My opinion is there will be two sides to this. One side will say his ego is getting in the way and the other side will say i agree with Trump 100% that he did get McCarthy elected 3D chess

I was disappointed that after Gaetz nominated Trump for Speaker nobody else joined in.

Nothing to boast about. He should be speaking out against a person like McCarthy. I watched as McCarthy applauded Pence when he stabbed Trump in the back and McCarthy then made his little illuminati hand gesture.

"Trump takes credit..."

Sun rises. Dog bites man.

It would have been headline news had he not.

Right, his opponents have destroyed themselves by winning 5 elections in a row and unleashing transgender groomers on America’s children.

Its a political community. Friends one day enemies the next.

That is Washington. You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villany.

The hill is as serious and objective as the Babylon bee

Trump got McCarthy elected as speaker. It’s clear

Why he did so is not clear

People can trust the hill to explain it. Or people can wise up and see that Trump is out to help tge country and just let him do his job. They can finally consider this:

Trump went to Wharton school of finance at U Penn. not as a Manchurian but as a student with academic Nona dudes from a family of smart business people. He was successful on his own with NO illegal practices

He knows and uses game theory ditto sun tzu

People who don’t trust him are marginalized by those who do trust him not because those who trust him are in a cult but because those who don’t trust him are ignorant

That’s all

Supporting McCarthy will come back to haunt Trump and his supporters. It’ll be the same as Trump’s endorsements for McConnell and Romney.

The opportunity to get rid of McCarthy is now gone. People keep reelecting RINOs and expect them to be better than Democrats. They never learn and then they chastise anyone who tried to warn them.

It’s Ground Hog day.

AND, local Florida man wrestles alligator. Driveby shootings in Chicago, Uhaul business solid in California, Philadelphia not the City of Brotherly Love because sexist, and ……..

And To paraphrase David Brinkley , the MSM would say “Everyone is Entitled to My Opinion “.

Yet some feign surprise.

Everybody wants perfection from others. There is no such thing.

Especially in politics.
