Trump, McCarthy hold call on new audio about Trump January 6 resignation - Reports

Washington, April 22 (UNI/Sputnik) Former US President Donald Trump and Republican House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy spoke over the phone on Thursday night about a new audio recording from January 10, 2021 of McCarthy telling a fellow lawmaker that Trump should resign following the events at the Capitol on January 6, The Washington Post reported on Friday.
The two leaders held the call after the audio recording was circulated in US media in response to recent claims by McCarthy that he did not push for Trump’s resignation following the breach of the Capitol by individuals protesting the certification of the 2020 presidential election in favor of Joe Biden, the report said, citing two people familiar with the conversation.
Trump was reportedly not upset with McCarthy and expressed gladness that he did not follow through with urging for his resignation, which Trump viewed as a sign of McCarthy’s continued hold over the Republican Party as one of its leaders, the report said.
