Good evening. If you were wondering how long a disgraced expresident has to wait to be forgiven these days after inciting a deadly insurrection against the seat of democracy in hopes of overturning the election he lost, the answer is three weeks and a day. Thats how long it took House Minority leader Kevin Mccarthy to make the pilgrimage to maralago and pay his respects to the former president. He went on his own initiative to talk strategy about taking back the house in 2022. He also went to try to make sure he would stay in the president s good graces, it seems. The expresident s Political Action committee put out a statement that reads in part, President Trumps popularity has never been stronger than it is today and his endorsement means more than perhaps any endorsement at any time. Three weeks and a day. Thats how little time it took for the party to rush back into the arms of the man who egged on the violent mob that descended on the capitol, smashed windows, beat Police Officers
