McCarthy’s fatigue
Kevin McCarthy is kind of tired of all this law enforcement nonsense.
House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) on Tuesday sought to downplay the legal case related to a hush-money payment by former president Donald Trump to an adult-film actress, saying it involved “personal money” and shouldn’t be able to be prosecuted under the statute of limitations.
“I think you know in your heart of hearts that this is just political,” McCarthy told reporters at a House Republican retreat in Orlando. “And I think that’s what the rest of the country thinks. And we’re kind of tired of that.”
The rest of the country? All of it? Nah, bub, what many of the rest of the country thinks is that it’s tragic and pathetic that this awful, empty, crooked, trashy man was ever president. That’s what we think.
McCarthy is really upset that he has to take time out of organizing hearings on Hunter Biden to denounce the targeting of one’s political enemies.
Almost got me Screechy. I almost laughed. A distinct twitch of the lips curling up into a wry smile.
It’s what kills me these days. The utter shameless bald faced hypocrisy on both the left and right. No one cares about facts, truth, right vs wrong. Everyone just wants to play the game for points. I’ll give the likes of Xi, Putin, and Orban one thing. They may spout propaganda nonsense with the best of them, but they understand facts.
