It’s March of 2023. The GOP has a slim majority in the House. President Biden sends a request for more military aid to Ukraine to Congress. A substantial majority of GOP House members supports the bill, but a smattering of Trumpists does not. As a result, Kevin McCarthy either has to rely on votes from Democrats to get the bill through, and thus alienate the extremists in his caucus, or watch the bill fail and see Putin swallow Ukraine.
What does he do? Any decent man in his position would put the national interest before his own. Can you really rely on a guy who lied about telling the truth, and who consistently panders to the crazoids in his party, to do that?
