Kevin McCarthy's comments ahead of the first Jan. 6 hearing reveal just how much he fears Trump's wrath. (via MaddowBlog)
reportIn the space of 60 seconds, McCarthy was asked five times whether President Biden’s win in the 2020 election was legitimate. Each time, he declined to answer — saying merely that Biden is the president, while not addressing the “legitimate” part — and claiming he had answered the question.
But as exasperating as this back-and-forth exchange was, it was also at odds with the Republican leader’s positions from last year. In May 2021, McCarthy, “I don’t think anybody is questioning the legitimacy of the presidential election.” It was a little odd at the time — a certain former president was still eagerly “questioning the legitimacy of the presidential election” — but it was at least somewhat reassuring that McCarthy wasn’t contributing to the Big Lie.
What the public saw was a politician who was right a year ago, but who’s moving further away from his own positions.
