His earlier quote about “supporting” Mcarthy reeks of Swamp gas.
“I got everybody calling me wanting my support. But let’s see what happens and we’ll go — I got everybody calling, wanting my support,” the former president told NBC News. “That’s all I can say. But we’ll see what happens. We’ll see how it all works out.”
Doesn’t he realize how this makes him look, and by reflection, the Rep party: insider wheeling and dealing, everyone out to make the best personal deal for himself. Apparently now Trump has what he wants and spins it like it’s all for us. The whole fiasco stinks. Somehow the republicans have managed to shoot themselves in both feet with 1 shot. It’s like they are following a script from west wing that was tossed out because it wasn’t believable.
