McCarthy: It’s ‘Appropriate’ For Trump To Cancel Pelosi’s Trip

House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) stood by President Donald Trump after he barred House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) from going on her overseas trip, widely seen as retaliation to her State of the Union letter.

“Why would she want to go overseas while the government is shut down, with people missing their paychecks?” McCarthy said to reporters. “I think it’s appropriate, that we could get back together, it would not take long and we could solve this problem.”

    I ,for one, will gladly contribute to a GoFundMe campaign for her travel expenses. Bon Voyage, Madame Speaker. May you continue to twist the knife frequently.

    Did he ground all CODELs?

  4. Despite being minority leader, McCarthy has absolutely no idea what he’s doing.

    He’s truly a big fish in a tiny, idiot GOP pond.

    When the public blames the other party for the shutdown by 2-to-1 is when you hype the crisis.

    When the public blames your party by 2-to-1 is when you try to stop the bleeding.

    Sweet Jeezuz, these guys are dumb…

  5. Kevin McCarthy is the perfect choice to lead today’s Republican party.
