GOP House leader Kevin McCarthy says 'all Americans are culpable for Capitol riot', not just him

2021-01-26

[Independent] Republican House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy tried to deflect the blame for the US Capitol off of himself and onto the general populace as Trump supporters stormed the seat of Congress.

"As a nation, I know we sit back and we’re appalled by what we’re seeing," Mr McCarthy said. "But I want everybody to take a deep breath and understand: We all have some responsibility here."

The Washington Post reported on Mr McCarthy's comments.

He made the comments to ABC News on 6 January while Trump supporters fought against US Capitol police officers to gain access to the Congress.
