2. Kevin McCarthy knows all about Nick Fuentes
When Marjorie Taylor Greene 🇺🇸 appeared at Fuentes' white nationalist convention, McCarthy called it 'appalling and wrong'
McCarthy said Republicans should 'not be associated, any time, any place, with somebody who is anti-Semitic'
3. But Kevin McCarthy has not said anything publicly about Trump's dinner with Fuentes, and his office did not respond to a request for comment.
McCarthy needs the support of Republican members of Congress that are loyal to Trump to be elected Speaker

4. Kevin McCarthy claimed to be appalled by Fuentes but is willing to look the other way if that is what it takes to gain power.
Other Republican leaders have taken a similar approach.
