House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) said Friday that recent political distractions caused by a trio of conservative rabble-rousers — Reps. Marjorie Taylor Greene (Ga.), Lauren Boebert (Colo.) and Paul Gosar (Ariz.) — are things that Republicans “would not want to deal with” and result in “problems” as his party tries to win back the majority in 2022.
A pair of related incidents consumed House Republicans this week, after Boebert suggested that progressive Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.), a refugee and one of just three Muslim Americans in Congress, could be a terrorist.
Those racist and Islamophobic remarks were condemned by fellow first-term Republican Rep. Nancy Mace (S.C.) during a CNN appearance. The back-and-forth sparked more intraparty warfare in McCarthy’s conference: Greene, a Boebert ally, took to Twitter and attacked Mace as “trash;” Mace responded in kind, calling Greene “batshit crazy.”
