NEW: Trump is mad at Kevin McCarthy and aides say he might rebuke him from the CPAC main stage on Sunday unless McCarthy can patch things up by then.
Link to tweet
Three people close to Trump tell me that hes stewing anew over KEVIN MCCARTHY. Its become so frequent that his advisers think the House minority leader may be in for a public reprimand. Thats even after the powwow at Mar-a-Lago where McCarthy tried to patch things up after he denounced Trump for the violence on Jan. 6.

He'll love McCarthy in a couple of hours again.

second only to Lindsey Graham. I'll refrain from making the obscene comment I have in mind here...

He didnt purge her from the leadership ranks, ergo insufficient fealty to His Royal Highness.

and hell end up saying nothing about KM. If he does rip him apart that makes my day. These guys never learn.

The media needs to stop using words like that offensively.

(13,548 posts)9. These repubs remind me of the townspeople in an old "Twilight Zone" where this kid Anthony
has godlike mental powers and can read minds. The people live in fear of him, constantly telling him how everything he does is "good," since he banishes anyone thinking unhappy thoughts into the otherworldly cornfield from which there is no return.
Never having experienced any form of discipline, Anthony does not even understand that his actions are wrong, and is confused when his father tells him that the neighbors are reluctant to let their children play with him after he sent several of his playmates to the cornfield.
So, McCarthy, unless he starts thinking "good" thoughts about little Trumpy is going to be banished into the MAGAt cornfield. It's crazy how these supposedly intelligent people live in constant fear of His Orangeness' whims. It would all be quite funny if it wasn't for the fact they're trying to turn the country into a dictatorship controlled by theocrats and oligarcs. What a metaphor that golden idol at CPAC is.

The cowardice of McCarthy and other GOP folk is unbelievably stupid
