Trump Endorses Kevin McCarthy, Pisses Off His Own Supporters
Daily Beast ^ | 6/4/22 | Zachary Petrizzo

Posted on 06/05/2022 5:14:14 AM PDT by Pollard

Despite Donald Trump's own followers booing and calling Republican House leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) a “RINO,” the ex-president sent out a statement late Saturday night endorsing McCarthy in his quest for 2022 re-election. “Congressman Kevin McCarthy is an outstanding Representative,” Trump wrote, calling the GOP House leader “strong” and “fearless.” However, after posting the endorsement to his Truth Social platform, Trump's followers expressed disappointment in the comment section.

“Because Trump is looking at the midterm elections, and then his own election two years later. He’s going to need mccarthy’s help to keep the Republicans in line to support him. Trust me there was a deal made.”

That is how I see it.

Too mush loser talk from so called “conservatives”

Trump is no longer MAGA? what the heck are you smoking?

We need to focus on what “Rinos” we want to take out, we can’t take them all out, some are in really same districts so spending that money is a giant waste. I would rather gain seats in the house and solidify our majority then waste money taking out a perceived Rino in a really safe district.

We need to stop the circular firing squad, it gets us no place.

I wish what you said was true, but he never took anyone down last time. In fact, they took him down. I still like Trump, but I don’t see much changing that only one man is supposed to repair. The damage now is far worse and will be more so by 2023 and 2021.

Getting too much false hope over an election where we still are run by swamptards as the conclusion is foolish.

I guess hope is all we got. Lets hope it isn’t disappointment.

Well, allow me to bring clarity for you. I’m pretty past Trump.

29 I will not drive them out from before you in one year, lest the land become desolate and the beasts of the field become too numerous for you.
.......
A wisdom to ponder, but Kari Lake, Kevin Mc. And Oz are the beasts of the field and Trump put lots of beasts in his own admin.

"Let me just read the headline and type with elbows herp derp!"

Jesus H. Christ. Some of you FReeptards.

McCarthy can't be primaried. His last GOP challenger was 2016. Democrat throw token women at him.

President Trump always takes the free square. That's why he's President and you are Freeptards.

You people need to pick up "Art of the Deal" again and smack yourselves until the ink smudges your forehead...

We are still FReeptards and he still isn’t President. So don’t lecture people around here for offering constructive criticism.

There are times that we have have to critique even those we love. You have to be able to listen to it and learn from it whether or not you agree with it.

None of us want a rerun of Trump as POTUS undermined and backstabbed by the very people he appointed and trusted. When we see a picture somewhat the same, we will speak out.

Is he still doing that? He should have handed over that rotten turkey to Joey a long time ago.

As the old adage goes - - if you want a friend in DC, “get a dog”... I think Trump knows what he’s up against - and he’s willing to go back into the arena with the strongest team he can built FROM THOSE HE CAN CHOOSE FROM.

I doubt Trump has any illusions left about what he’s dealing with.

I guess we need to toss the captain from his own ship if we want to save it.

As Lurkinandloomin says rightly so: can’t win if we keep supporting assistant democrats

Whatever happened to cleaning out the swamp weasels? VERY DISAPPOINTED....☹️ This is one of the reasons why we can’t have nice things.

Why not ask why Kevin's associates keep voting him into the leadership position, Trump has no power over their decision and neither do we.

That’s true generally, but not when inaccurate information is presented as criticism. Taking that element a step further, some just come here to complain and don’t offer anything constructive.

DeSantis/Paul would be a better ticket for 2024.

The Father of the Trumpcines is making his WEF Young Global Leader daughter proud.
