here's hack mccarthy.
the sequence:
1) trump tries to overturn democracy
2) McCarthy, talking to Liz Cheney, says he will/would tell trump should resign.
3) Trump doesn't resign
4) McCarthy exiles Liz Cheney from the GOP leadership for saying the same things McCarthy said privately to her.
5) McCarthy makes up with Trump, basically (but not literally) denies he said trump should resign. but we have the tapes that he did say trump should resign.
Oboy the crazies in the House will feast on this in the speaker election. An anti-trumper in their midst! I'd expect mccarthy either to be elected speaker or resign immediately if the Rs win the house.
