Which is it, Kevin? GOP leader either broke DC housing rules by renting just one room in Frank Luntz’s $25k-a-month apartment OR flouted ethics rules by getting a cheap deal.
McCarthy, the most senior Republican in the House, stayed at Luntz’s home
Luntz, a pollster, was formerly staunchly Republican but now criticizes the party.
On Sunday McCarthy confirmed he had stayed at Luntz’s $4.3m DC penthouse
His spokesman said that it was due to the pandemic making hotels complicated.
House ethics rules mean that ‘fair market rate’ must be paid for accommodation
Luntz’s condo rules, it emerged on Tuesday, forbid the renting of just a room.
Fair market rate for the entire 7,000-sq-ft home would be $25,000 a month
If McCarthy did not pay that, he either violated House or condo rules.
Frank Luntz is not a Conservative. Frank Luntz is an opportunist, he apparently derides people who disagree with his globalist, new world order outlook on the world. He seems to promote the views of his wealthy grandees.
