Uh, Kevin “Putin Pays Trump and Rohrabacher” McCarthy, I don’t think you want to get into the subject of public officials doing things unbecoming of public officials, ifyouknowwhatimean.

If he wasn’t pissed off, it wouldn’t be as much fun.

Talk about stupidly audacious! McCarthy is judging “behavior” while Donnie and his ardent supporters exhibit grotesque behavior?? Whoa, dude, get a grip! And, how can criticize Steve King’s behavior and give His Orangeness a pass for the same offense? Hypocrisy in the highest!

GROW UP McCarthy - stop being such a petulant snot …
There is no reason to have this shutdown go on any longer - it is unbecoming for you to be so freaking obtuse.

McCarthy told CNN that Trump “should come here, give the speech” on Jan. 29, the date for which Pelosi initially invited him.

He can’t, you colossal idiot. The President can’t legally enter the House without the Speaker’s permission. And she’s right, he can deliver the speech from the Oval and have it sent to Congress in written form, if he likes. There’s no Constitutional mandate for a public address, only that he updates the Congress ‘from time to time’. It doesn’t even have to be annually, and it doesn’t have to be all that formal. Stop whining, you pathetic man-baby.

It was incomparably unbecoming of the Republican Speaker of the House when he invited Netanyahu to address Congress in order for him to lobby against the US President. The security of the entire country’s leadership housed under the same roof, on the other hand, is a serious matter becoming of the Speaker to consider.

To change course like that shows she’s playing politics,” McCarthy said, per CNN. “To change course is just unbecoming of the speaker.”

Other outlets reported the remarks as well. NBC News’ Frank Thorp reported that McCarthy also said: “Speaker Pelosi should act like a speaker and have the President and keep her word like she invited him.”

Can I go get my samwich please?

Well the way I see it, she’s sparing the country of having to miss whatever is on TV for 50 minutes at 9PM to hear him drone on and on about how he’s been the greatest president in the history of the Universe.

It’s not like everyone can’t already do the entire speech in their heads. “That I can tell you.”

And she is doing it very well!

“Politics” is what politicians do. Some better than others.

Kevin, when you say these dumb things any place but on Fox… You just look stupid.

Get used to being owned, McCarthy. Oh, wait a minute, you already are. Well, slap my knee.

And also:

Please let it be Mr. Mother.

Good plan, Nancy. Security will be uncertain—a negative outcome that Trump would just love to come true so he can dramatize and blame the Dems for—anything to distract from the “Rusher” thing.

Nancy’s move can be summed up in two words, Kev.

It’s also “unbecomng” of Trump to hold the country hostage to an ineffective, and therefore waste of money, wall.
