When Kinzinger Knew the GOP Had Capitulated

“Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-IL) says the GOP’s capitulation to Donald Trump finally became clear to him when House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy visited the ex-president at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida to talk strategy, just two weeks after he’d blamed Trump for his role in inciting the deadly U.S. Capitol riot,” the HuffPost reports.

Said Kinzinger: “That’s the moment when I realized, ‘Oh, man, this is a problem.’”

He added: “You come to understand that when the party and party leaders talk about unity, and in the same breath say that Donald Trump is the leader of the Republican Party, what they’re talking about isn’t unity.”
