Trump meets with McCarthy in Florida to plan GOP House takeover in 2022
Fox News ^ | January 28, 2021 | Marisa Schultz

House GOP Leader Kevin McCarthy met with former President Trump at Mar-a-lago Thursday where the two agreed to work together on Republicans taking back the House in 2022.

McCarthy, who once said Trump "bears responsibility" for the deadly Jan. 6 Capitol riot, reunited with Trump in Florida for a "very good and cordial" meeting where McCarthy welcomed Trump's support in promoting GOP House candidates in the next election, according to a readout from Trump's team.

“... if the Republicans won’t support you?. I know many Republicans and they are all strong Trump supporters. You are judging all Republicans by the actions and words of some old guard politicians.

What will it take for your to admit to yourself that the
Republican Party did not go to the defense of Trump during
the election cycle?

What will it take for you to admit to yourself that Mitch
McConnell was making comments last week about not knowing
if he would vote for impeachment or not?

What will it take for you to admit to yourself that the
Republican Party that controlled Congress in 2017 & 2018,
did nothing to shore up the Republic?

Why do I have to tell you folks this over and over and
over and over and over and over...

...and still you folks come back for another round.

WTF?!? McCarthy who despises Trump and stabbed him in the back?

PDJT needs to expand his horizons and find someone he can trust.

Good luck with that, until the crooked voting machines and other cheating is addressed, it ain’t gonna happen.

Excellent point. Please note my aging but sadly still true tagline.

I can throw Kevin McCarthy much farther than I can trust him.

That would be a sight to behold.

Some not too bright folks just insist on fighting among themselves instead of banding together.

The Dem media loves them.

Trump sure is a lot smarter than some people who ‘claim’ to follow him.

Darned right. Four years without lifting a finger to advance a Republican legislative agenda, while voting with the commiecrats to try to strip away presidential foreign policy powers and prevent border wall construction, and barking for impeachment or investigations every time the NYT or BezosBlog published some fake news story that Trump wanted to fire Mueller or that Trump was tied up in some made-up scandal. They were trying to get rid of Trump from the very beginning, simply threw away their majority in 2018 and now expect Trump to turn up to save them with his cash and voters.

To be fair to them, I’ve said the same things they are now,
but after witnessing the last four years, and what the RP
failed to do with their best chance in 70 years, I can’t
stomach the party any longer.

This is one battered wife that is getting a divorce and
taking everything I can take with me to a new party.

So it’s your opinion too, that all we need to do is change
the party and everything will be peachy?

Care to think about how many presidential election cycles
we have been saying that same thing? Ever since 1960,
that’s been the claim. This time we’re going to be smarter,
work harder, and finally get it done.

When will it finally dawn on you? Been there, done that,
over and over and over and over and over and over and
over and over. ENOUGH!

I T . D I D . N O T . W O R K !

It never has. It never will.

Establishment Republicans are perfectly happy with being in the minority.
in the minority they can whine, yap to the press about how they would handle things and they can generally avoid any responsibility should policies go wrong.
Out of power, on the back bench, is where most of them are the most comfortable.

Their favorite publication, National Review, fully supports this.

“So it’s your opinion too, “ like Trump.

Yeah, I agree with him a lot.

Won’t hurt to try Trump’s way of reconciliation. If it fails again well... that won’t kill starting another Party. With more influence in the R Party we’ll just be more successful if we go that route.

I think though that Trump is right.

Alright, I regret using Trump as an “appeal to authority”.

But if he thinks we can win a House Majority, well by golly I’m in.
Let’s see Trump fail before we desert him.

He just spent four years as the President of the United States
within that party.

How did that work out for him?

They sat on their hands for his first two years, when we had
the majority of both chambers in Congress. Did they make a
lot of moves to strengthen the Republic? For instance, did
they even fund the wall?

Did they defund NPR or PBS?

Did they defund Planned Parenthood all the way?

Even the simplest of things, they couldn’t be bothered.

So, NO!

Did these same people support him when all the election
fraud was being revealed?

Crickets.

They let him drift in a vast pond of Leftist propaganda,
not lifting a single finger to help. They didn’t voice
support or agree publicly that there was ANY trouble
at all. They let the media portray him as a whack job
out of control. They just sat there and laughed. It
served their purposes. They DID NOT want him any more
than the Democrats did. You know that’s true.

Okay lets look at what is going on now. Last week
Mitch McConnell said he wasn’t sure if he’d vote to
acquit or convict Trump at the Impeachment trial.

I’d say things are pretty darned clear just how much
support Trump will get.

Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me 16 more times,
and not just shame on me, get me to a hospital psych
ward.
