Are you ready for the closing speech at CPAC? At 3:40 p.m. today President Trump is scheduled to speak and is expected to take aim at House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy among other wayward Republican party members. The conference marks the first significant gathering of Republicans since the 2020 stealection. CPAC will be Trump’s first major address since leaving the White House — and people familiar with his plans have been leaking what we can expect to hear, according Gateway Pundit.
According to a report from Politico, three sources close to the president told them that McCarthy may be in for a public reprimand.
For his part, McCarthy praised Trump in his own CPAC speech, saying that “it was the forgotten man and woman that Donald Trump listened to the voice of that no one else would listen to.”
However, Politico reports that “he’s stewing anew over Kevin McCarthy.
It’s become so frequent that his advisers think the House minority leader may be in for a public reprimand. That’s even after the powwow at Mar-a-Lago where McCarthy tried to patch things up after he denounced Trump for the violence on January 6th”
Trump may also blast people like Nikki Haley, Liz Cheney herself, and Mitch McConnell, according to the report.
According to a report from Fox News, Trump will also be offering “a stinging rebuke of the first month of the Biden presidency — while laying out what the GOP needs to do to take Congress in the 2022 midterms.”
“He knows it’s a very important reset for him and for the country and for half the country and so many people who are here in this ballroom,” CPAC Chairman Matt Schlapp said on “Fox & Friends” Thursday.
President Trump is expected to rail against Biden’s rollbacks of policies that were tough on illegal immigration, accuse Biden of pushing identity politics over American identity, the need to reopen schools, and the damage Biden is doing to our workforce. Additionally, he will be pushing the need to break up Big Tech, according to the report.
“He will talk about policies that he believes have been successful for the party, while describing a divide in the party between the grassroots and a handful of Beltway insiders. Trump is expected to name names,” the report states.
