Remember that Trump supported and lobbied for McCarthy from the beginning. Those 201 were doing what Trump wanted done.
The 20 Patriots were opposing Trump.
Consider the implications of that.

“Remember that Trump supported and lobbied for McCarthy from the beginning.”
He was wrong.
“Those 201 were doing what Trump wanted done.”
They were wrong.
“The 20 Patriots were opposing Trump.”
They were correct; they were Patriots.
“Consider the implications of that.”
The implications are that we’ve lost our country and a once-great President has sold out to I-don’t-know-what/who.
It appears you are thinking linearly as in checkers; while what occurred behind the scenes was chess.
There was little doubt KM would win the Speakership position; Trump's role in the issue was an essential influencer who wished to stake out a position that would be comfortable with KM in the future.
Trump knew full well there would be an attempt to cure KM of his Rino inclinations and it is absurd to think he would have objected to such efforts.
Now, of course, if you are trying to cast a shadow on Trump...
I have and Trump has lost me.
