What gives? Trump questioned by followers after ‘complete and total endorsement’ of Kevin McCarthy
June 6, 2022 | Chris Donaldson
Former President Donald J. Trump put an end to the suspense about whether he would support House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy when he formally endorsed the California Republican, a blessing that didn’t sit well with some who have been extremely critical of the man who stands to replace Nancy Pelosi as Speaker of the House if the GOP wins back control of the lower chamber in November’s midterm elections as expected.
On Sunday, Trump committed to backing McCarthy despite his incendiary recorded remarks that were highly critical of the sitting POTUS in the waning days of his historic term after the so-called “insurrection” on January 6, 2021.
In a statement that was issued through his Save America PAC, the former and perhaps future POTUS sang McCarthy’s praises, serving up his “complete and total endorsement” of the embattled congressman although he stopped short of endorsing him to be the next speaker if Democrats are dislodged from control of the House as expected.
According to Trump, “Congressman Kevin McCarthy is an outstanding representative for the people of California and a strong and fearless leader of the House Republican Conference.”
