In February Kevin McCarthy claimed “that this Republican Party is a very big tent. Everyone is invited in.”
Apparently the tent’s not big enough to include anyone not buying into Trump’s Big Lie.
Trump one year ago today:
“This is a very contagious virus. It’s incredible. But it’s something that we have tremendous control over.”
534,000 deaths later. . .
Nov 3 didn’t work out. Or Dec 1, the last deadline for states to certify their votes. Or Dec 14, the day electors cast their votes. Or Jan 6, the day VP Pence announced the results. Or Jan 20, when Biden was inaugurated. March 4, still nothing. What’s next on the calendar?
Nikki Haley now says of Trump: “He went down a path he shouldn’t have, and we shouldn’t have followed him, and we shouldn’t have listened to him.”
Not all of us followed him or listened to him. Those like Haley who did can now struggle to redeem their reputations. Too late.
