Mr. McCarthy was President Trump’s friend, and the meeting was held after congressmen rebuked McCarthy’s weak leadership, Politico said. It is criticized that the leadership did not check the president or made a proper voice even though the president put the Republican party into crisis.
According to Axios, President Trump also called McCarthy on the same day and claimed that there was a left-wing group behind the invasion of Congress for more than 30 minutes, and was condemned to “Stop” by McCarthy.
President Trump claimed that there was antifa (anti-fascism) behind the parliamentary intrusion case and also raised the rumors of manipulation of the 2020 presidential election. Then it was reported that the president of the House McCarthy replied, “Stop it. The election is over.” “I was at the scene, but it was not Antifa that invaded Congress, but the powers of Maga (MAGA, making America great again, President Trump’s election slogan),” he said.
