In an expletive-laced phone call with House Republican leader Kevin McCarthy while the Capitol was under attack, then-President Donald Trump said the rioters cared more about the election results than McCarthy did. CNN Special Correspondent Jamie Gangel reports

Dang and they STILL defending him. Fools
@Yane YanYan they’re delusional its no use trying to get someone that stupid to believe anything that could even make the smallest amount of sense they’ll just die out from natural selection soon lol
@J_a_m_i_e again you prove that you are upset
@manicpepsicola Sounds like your into that kind of stuff
@J_a_m_i_e I’ll give you a hint on how to not sound upset on this comment thread, leave and do actual research.
@J_a_m_i_e whats confusing about what I said?
Even if Pence had been killed by the mob on that day – Republicons would still vote to acquit Trump
Dead or not Pence didn’t make a difference.
@lennysvibe I have noticed many Americans have no loyalty or integrity. It is a bad trait endemic in the West.
@Jim River More than that; McConnell’s wife’s family is part of the Chinese mafia. They not only have deep connections with the Asian underworld, but pay bribes and protection money to top party leaders in Beijing to enable the continuance of their activities. The whole thing is crooked as a dog’s wiener.
Yes that is true but lot of rhinos and traitors insight the party.
If we had video proof of Biden r@ping an underaged girl, then CNN would try and bury the story. And democratic voters would still vote for Biden.
Kevin McCarthy should have been screaming his bloody head off during the Senate trial. He didn’t. Just as guilty in my opinion.
McCarthy should’ve given the recording of the phone call to the media instead of some typed out transcript for the media to read from as if it happened. Or, you know, have the impeachment managers add this to their little fairy tale of events. That would give more credibility to the Dems arguments, wouldn’t you say?
@Carol Wilson -We all saw the videos today. And we saw what your rioters did last year.
@Jake Songster sounds like a good deal. Some good skin has to be removed in the process of scraping out a cancerous boil on America. Trump and the seditious republicans are that cancer.
@Pat Mahinie it’s “made up”? Oh, really? Based show what? Your opinion? Do you know how ridiculous you sound? 🤦🏼♂️🥴🥴🥴
AMEN Brother!!!
It doesn’t matter what Trump says or does because the Republicans won’t admit it.
@Jake Songster It’s the exact sort of engagement you deserve. Cry about it.
@Progressive Humanist; You have absolutely nothing without it!
@Ashley Rusher Everyone outside trump’s base should care. This will send a message to anyone who thinks they can become a dictator in America. If he gets away with it, it tell the next wanna be dictator we are alright with a dictatorship here.
@J_a_m_i_e; Should we check with trump, cruz, or maybe Hawley, dude your such a lost loser, go play Russian roulette.
@J_a_m_i_e; Any possible clue what a total loser you are, maybe you and junior can be best buds, you got to let Eric play sometimes, and stay out of their underwear.
So McCarthy was candid in order to persuade other members to vote to impeach, but didn’t have the balls himself to.
I hope Raskin is aware of this. I hope its not too late to bring up because this is the one piece that was missing.
China first, America last
*Subpoena* McCarthy and others and make them testify under oath on the Senate floor.
Because he’s on your side? The only defense is an issue with hierocracy.. It’s an easy win if the DNC learns some accountability.
‘Absolute Proof!’😳
@Brooke Baldvag
We call you septics 😊
The oath of a Republican has already been proven to have as much value as a fart in the wind.
@Ross McKenzie Marxism CCP by extension!💣
Trump knew it wasn’t Antifa else he would have immediately called in The National Guard!
@Andy Bossert If you truly believe that then you have not been following events very well. He did not prove his point that the video was manipulated. There were multiple videos of that day from different angles and like a movie the Democrats showed a bigger picture from that day. While the news has said Trump was planning for that day for months I think more accurately he was planning this since 2016, when he said he would have won the popular vote had it not been for the millions of illegal ballots.
🤣🤣🤣🤣he tried to Pelosi said no
@Mik’el Ban Rab’ah 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Russia,Russia, Russia. You people are great entertainment with your obvious stupidity
@phillip wall again there brain dead he tried. Pelosi said no. Do I need to repeat it a few more times since you are so slow you don’t comprehend?

This guy, as soon as McCarthy got out of there he jumped right back on trumps tip.
What Kevin McCarthy says in private is inconsequential compared to what he says and does in public. Republicans will remain the Janus party — two-faced.
The party of personal responsibility, but not the party of personal accountability.
“He supported the objections to the election even after the insurrection” That was impressive.
China first, America last
We will never forget the many Republicans who stood in defense of a traitor.
@John Rand Stop equating fighting for an end to police brutality to a fight to brutalize police. They are not the same. One may have caused damage that insurance companies will pay out on, the other was a seditionous, treasonous attack on our own government.
And these lawyers who have put their names on it too.
The will be on Don Jr’s cabinet.
@John Rand Good then maybe you remember the testimony from the FBI director and DHS report teling us over 75% of last summers protest violence was from right wing extremists. I’m sure you will since you have such a good memory.
Trump’s last words as he departed Washington were: “I’ll see you again soon.” In other words, “After you guys acquit me I’ll come back with a vengeance. We will get the coup done for real.”
@Brooke Baldvag kinda like how most of Trump’s products are made in China?
@Marlene Smith He is the fraud
I’m starting to think this was just a training exercise, next time it happens they’ll be armed and know exactly where to go. In fact there are videos were these nuts are talking about doing just that. If they don’t convict Trump they are saying that they did nothing wrong that day and that a president is essentially a king in the last month of his term.
@Marlene Smith
We will never allow it.
Trump is finished politically.
You are right. If he can, he will be back . lol
McCarthy should have given this as evidence to the Dems, to be heard by all.
China first, America last
@cc 1k its not been leaked. They have a named Republican congresswoman on record.
I wish V P Pence would talk ,he would have a lot to say.
🤣🤣🤣yeah if it actually existed. Knock knock is anyone home? If this tape or conversation was exactly as CNN said why don’t they have the tape to prove their allegations? Easy without constantly reporting on Trump they wouldn’t have jobs so they have to fabricate to amuse you three ring circus freaks
@dcoleman4444 🤣🤣🤣isn’t it obvious? It doesn’t exist
GOP: “oh man, that was close. We almost died. Anyways, Trump is innocent”
*YEAH THAT MAKES SENSE* Hahaha
Congressman Steve Scalise almost died from gun violence and he still voted against making common sense gun law changes.
China first, America last
Ducktard is innocent? 🤔🤔🤔🤔
Beyond pathetic !!!!!
His state of mind? Trump is nuts, j has been nuts all his life Look around Not in reality
And it still won’t make a difference, sadly. The GOP can’t turn back now.
China first, America last
Unfortunately
GOP I think agrees that standards are good.. Double standards would not follow suit. Eat your own dog food then try again.
It’s not that they can’t, is that they won’t even when they know better.
@Brooke Baldvag ooh,geez, shut up! So sick of the people who stand by this Criminal! We will Always know what a Criminal is,and Who!! It’s not Biden.
Hillary attempted to warn you five years ago. Deplorables
5 years ago she started saying the election was stolen from her.. 5 years ago she started saying you had to fight lol.. Hypocrites!!
@Joe Sniffs Kids We wore kitten hats, sang songs, and registered voters. Trumpers stormed the Capitol and killed a police officer. So…..yeah.
@Joe Sniffs Kids she conceded the very NEXT DAY
@Bijou Did you wear a kitten hat while rioting all summer too?
“He was not sorry to see his unyielding loyal vice president or the congress under attack…” Why would he? Remember that this narcissist bragged about crowd size when visiting vicitms of the El Paso shooting spree.
“These are not my people.” This sentence alone is his conviction. He violated his oath of office ( to protect,preserve and defend the constitution ) because he accepts the breaching and violence taking place at the US capitol.
