House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) on Sunday refused to disclose the details of his call with then-President Donald Trump during the Capitol insurrection on Jan. 6, when McCarthy allegedly implored Trump to call off his supporters who were ransacking the Capitol.
Lying dickhead.
Non-denial.
Look for him on Wikipedia with the rest of the invertebrates.
While I wasn’t there, in fear for my life, but was here, in my snug apartment tucked away in the midwest, I think I can safely call bullshit, even from this distance.
Telling the truth about this would not be a bad look on Faux News for the cult faithful.
“How’s it goin’, Kev?”
“Chaotic, sir.”
“Good.”
"Trump is a weak man’s idea of a strong man." – George Will
That makes Kevin McCarthy a weak man.
Lets see how these scenarios play out:
Scenario A) McCarthy is telling the truth, Trump said he thought antifa was attacking the Capitol. Then why did he not send in the Nat. Guard and maybe ore? Isn’t that the job of the CIC?
Scenario B) McCarthy is telling the truth, Trump said he would make a video. Well, he did, proving Trump knew it was not antifa but his own supporters, unless he loves antifa and calls them “special”.
Scenario C) McCarthy is lying. BINGO!!!
homage to a WAPO commenter.
“I engaged in the idea of making sure we could stop what was going on inside the Capitol at that moment in time."
Something like, “Sir, can we have a discussion about what’s going on in the Capitol? Some of my people are afraid. No? OK.”
Profiles in courage, words of wisdom from a marshmallow.
According to all of the laws of physics to which I was exposed in my studies, a suit containing a vacuum should collapse onto itself. And yet, Kevin McCarthy.
Well, he’ll be talking about that call to the Feds, soon.
Wonder if he’ll plead the 5th?
Wanna see McCarthy as SPeaker?
Me neither…
Let’s do this starting right now…
Qevin is just following the advice of his attorneys.
“Shut up”.
But which side, Kev?
If the comment about how the mob was more upset about the election than him was McCarthy’s description of the gist of the call, and he’s backing away from that now, then it seems very possible he plans to withhold some pretty damning evidence.
Let’s see if he dodges the questions or lies under oath. If he tells the truth, he will probably lose his seat so I think I know the answer.
He remained tight-lipped as Wallace pressed him on the incident
His lips remained tightly planted on the loser’s ass. FIFY.
Soon to be seen in posters at your local Post Office…
House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (Calif.) and House Minority Whip Steve Scalise (La.) both get Fs.
