McCarthy: House Republicans Concerned Cheney Can’t ‘Carry Out the Message’
House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) said Tuesday that Republicans had voiced concerns about House Republican Conference Chair Liz Cheney’s (R-Wyo.) leadership ability after she made comments critical of former President Donald Trump.
“There’s no concern about how she voted on impeachment. That decision has been made,” McCarthy (R-Calif.) told “Fox & Friends” Tuesday.
But McCarthy said he’s heard “from members concerned about her ability to carry out the job as conference chair, to carry out the message. We all need to be working as one if we’re able to win the majority,” he said. “Remember, majorities are not given, they are earned. And that’s about the message about going forward.”
