After suggesting that Donald Trump might not be the best presidential-candidate choice for Republicans, House Speaker Kevin McCarthy has already embarked on an apology tour.
Trump on Tuesday morning to apologize and said that he misspoke in the CNBC interview, sources told CNN.
While some Trump allies were satisfied with the call, CNN noted that a number of Trump advisers remain suspicious of McCarthy. That might be why McCarthy followed up the call byBreitbart, a definitively pro-Trump outlet, that Trump is “stronger today” than when he ran in 2016. He also blamed the dispute on mainstream-media sabotage.
Taking the apology a step further, the McCarthy campaign issued a fundraising blast declaring Trump “the STRONGEST opponent to Biden.” However, that donation plea appears to have been a misstep: Politico that Trump’s team asked their McCarthy counterparts to drop the pitch, as it invoked Trump’s name without his permission.
