.MaddowBlog: It would be delightful if House Minority Leader McCarthy's version of reality, in which his party accepted the legitimacy of Biden's victory, were true. Alas, it is not.

Hours after Rep. Liz Cheney was ousted from her Republican leadership position for rebuking former President Donald Trump's ongoing claim that the election was "stolen" from him, House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy told reporters, "I don't think anybody is questioning the legitimacy of the presidential election."

During a brief Q&A in front of the White House, the House GOP leader added,"I think that is all over with."be all over with. There has never been any sane reason to question the legitimacy of the 2020 election results, so if McCarthy were right, and Americans can safely assume that his party has moved on, it'd be a heartening development.First, there was an obvious problem with the timing of McCarthy's comments.

Second, McCarthy may not fully appreciate just how flawed a messenger he is for this message. After all, in the wake of the 2020 race, hethat Trump had won, asked the Supreme Court to help overturn the election, and then voted to reject election results he did not like.
