Trump tells GOP congressional supporters to cease McCarthy opposition: Breitbart interview

Former President Donald Trump voiced his support for House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy’s (R-Calif) bid for Speaker on Friday, warning the five Republican holdouts that they’re “playing a very dangerous game.”

“Look, I think this: Kevin has worked very hard,” Trump said in an interview with Breitbart, adding, “I think he deserves the shot. Hopefully he’s going to be very strong and going to be very good and he’s going to do what everybody wants.”

As the vote on McCarthy’s nomination looms just over two weeks away, five Republican congressmen — Reps. Andy Biggs (R-Ariz.), Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.), Ralph Norman (R-S.C.), Matt Rosendale (R-Mont.) and Bob Good (R-Va.) — have continued to oppose McCarthy’s Speakership bid.

McCarthy said on Friday that the five had not moved on their stance, despite ongoing conversations. Even so, he added that he believes the group will stand down “in the end.”

However, Trump told Breitbart he has warned the congressmen about the potential consequences of their opposition.

“Now, I’m friendly with a lot of those people who are against Kevin. I think almost every one of them are very much inclined toward Trump, and me toward them,” he said. “But I have to tell them, and I have told them, you’re playing a very dangerous game.”

The former president pointed to former House Speaker John Boehner’s (R-Ohio) resignation in 2015 in the face of opposition from within the Republican Party, which resulted in former Rep. Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) taking over as Speaker.

“Boehner wasn’t perfect—nobody’s perfect—but Paul Ryan was a disaster for the Republican Party,” Trump said.

Trump and Ryan frequently clashed while the two overlapped as president and Speaker, and Ryan has become a staunch opponent of the former president since leaving Congress.

Ryan said in an interview last month that he believes Trump would lose if he becomes the Republican nominee in 2024 and labeled himself a “never-again-Trumper.”
