WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report)—Kevin McCarthy has been repeatedly summoned to Mar-a-Lago over the past week to sit and listen to Donald J. Trump recite things that he would have posted on Facebook, the House Minority Leader has confirmed.
Since Trump’s ban by the social-media platform was upheld, the former President has commanded McCarthy on three separate occasions to fly down to Palm Beach to hear the forbidden posts.
“It was really interesting, for example, to hear what he had to say about Elon Musk hosting ‘S.N.L’ ” McCarthy, who was returning from Reagan National Airport, said. “He thought that Musk was not nearly as good as he’d been.”
McCarthy said that the repeated summons to Mar-a-Lago were “in no way” interfering with his ability to attend to his duties in Washington.
“It’s no trouble at all,” McCarthy said. “Ivanka, Jared, Eric, and Don, Jr., are all there, too, and they’re not allowed to leave the room, either. It’s an honor to be included.”
