Newly elected Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., gave special thanks to former President Donald Trump for his role in the negotiations that won over several Republican holdouts and led to McCarthy winning support from his conference to be elected speaker.

"I do want to especially thank President Trump," McCarthy told reporters early Saturday morning. "I don't think anybody should doubt his influence. He was with me from the beginning … he was all in."

"The ‘Speaker’ selection process, as crazy as it may seem, has made it all much bigger and more important than if done the more conventional way," Trump said. "Congratulations to Kevin McCarthy and our GREAT Republican Party!"

How many votes did Trump get Steve?

How many "votes" Trump "got" is immaterial Ron. The Republicans are in control, once again. That's a FACT.

Can’t you see that Trump has been dumped by The Republican Party and that is a fact. I bet you still haven’t seen where Trump is all about because you have been gaslighted.

What makes you think Trump has been "dumped" Ron? We've all seen the pictures of him on MTG's phone, talking to the Representatives on the floor of the House, as they were voting for Speaker. How do you figure that is being "dumped?"

He was one of the candidates for the chair remember. Trump only get one vote. I believe it was from McCarthy.

Obviously,you weren't watching Ron. You can't seriously think it matters.

Dea. Ron Gray Sr. Monday, January 9th 2023 at 8:08AM

We will see you in the next few days. How are you? Republicans are going to deal with themselves. I personally think that believes they should leave do US defense budget alone.
