.SpeakerMcCarthy has reportedly denied promising former President Donald Trump that his impeachments would be expunged.
Sources close to Trump told Politico the former president was furious with McCarthy questioning whether Trump was the"strongest to win the election," last month. McCarthy has carefully avoided backing Trump or any other candidate in the 2024 nomination contest to avoid dividing his caucus any more than he has to. Without accounting for the tenuous politics of the House, Trump has expressed frustration that one of the country's top Republicans isn't lining up behind him.
.@SpeakerMcCarthy denies promising Trump he would hold a vote on expunging Trump’s impeachments, as reported by Playbook this AM, telling @ryanobles, “They did it for purely political purposes. I support expungement but there's no deal out there.” —> pic.twitter.com/qNzrPQEKD7Representatives for McCarthy did not respond to the Washington Examiner's request for comment.
Now, Trump appears to be ready to demand McCarthy make good on the debt the former president believes he owes him. McCarthy said he would"look at" considering the resolution when it was introduced, but said at the time, Republicans had other priorities to consider.
