Republicans want to ignore the Jan 6. committee's hearings, but former President Trump is increasingly criticizing the lack of defense being waged in his name.
WASHINGTON — Republicans in Washington are betting that the televised Jan. 6 hearings aren't breaking through, that voters are more worried about gas prices and inflation and that — basically — no one cares.The former president has reserved special criticism for House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., who made the call last year to yank all five Trump allies from the special panel after Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., rejected two of his picks.
“So, basically, you just push it off as a partisan witch hunt,” this person said, speaking on condition of anonymity to discuss the Republicans’ thinking about the committee. The hearings have sparked concern within Trump’s circle about his electability should he run for president in 2024. He got more personal in a speech at the Faith and Freedom Coalition conference last week in Nashville, Tennessee. He called Cheney a “warmonger” and said another member of the committee, Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., has a head shaped like a “watermelon.”
“Since Nancy has appointed this political committee, gas has gone up $1.86,” McCarthy said at a news conference Tuesday, referring to Pelosi.
