The New York Daily News used its front page on Wednesday to sum up the chaos in the GOP after House Republicans failed, at least, to elect Kevin McCarthy as speaker.
“This is a GOP s**t show, starring… The Liar & The Loser,” the newspaper declared in its headline.
“The Loser” dig, meanwhile, was aimed at McCarthy after he still unsuccessfully tried to become speaker after House Democrats joined the right-wing Republican group in the vote against him.
The pair are “poster children for GOP dysfunction,” the tabloid added.
McCarthy admitted late Tuesday that it wasn’t “the day I wanted” but has vowed to continue his bid to become speaker. He claimed to have the support of former President Donald Trump.
