In the days after January 6 2021, when Donald Trump supporters stormed the US Capitol, House Republican leader Kevin McCarthy said the then president bore “responsibility” for the attack and chastised him for failing to denounce the mob. Just two weeks later, however, McCarthy posed for a smiling photo with Trump at his gilded Palm Beach resort. Trump called their meeting “cordial”, and vowed to work with McCarthy to help the Republicans achieve a majority in the House.
在2021年1月6日唐納德?特朗普(Donald Trump)的支持者沖進美國國會大廈后的幾天里,眾議院共和黨領袖凱文?麥卡錫(Kevin McCarthy)表示,時任總統對襲擊負有“責任”,并指責他沒有譴責暴徒。然而,就在兩周后,麥卡錫與特朗普在他鍍金的棕櫚灘度假村微笑合影。特朗普稱他們的會面是“友好的”,并發誓要與麥卡錫合作,幫助共和黨人在眾議院獲得多數席位。
