“The voters of his district have elected him. He is seated. He is part of the Republican conference,” Speaker McCarthy says in this NBC Nightly News segment on January 18, 2023. He’s wrong. The voters didn’t elect this guy. They elected a fictional person fabricated by a liar and con man. But McCarthy, who has almost no votes to spare, needs this guy; and that’s why he stoops to defending an election won by false pretenses — even after this scumbag stole money from people trying a help a veteran save his dying dog. Does McCarthy have no shame?
