Fox News’s Brian Kilmeade bashed the Republican congressmen and women who’ve put Kevin McCarthy’s House speakership bid in jeopardy with their vocal opposition against him.

Kilmeade spoke with Steve Doocy and Ainsley Earhardt on Fox & Friends about how McCarthy’s quest for 218 votes has been endangered by Matt Gaetz (R-FL), Andy Biggs (AZ), and other hard-right reps pledging not to support him. Kilmeade argued largely in favor of McCarthy’s qualifications while saying that the criticism the latter has received from the hard right is based on egotism and little else.

If they said ‘Hey, listen, he won’t do anything on the border. He’s not doing anything with Hunter Biden. He is not going to do anything to go reduce spending.’ None of this is true, so it’s almost as if they’re debating things that are their egos, nothing to do with America. I’m not even talking about Republicans. Republicans or Democrats. They can’t grab onto anything except for, I guess, they want to get a little bit more notoriety in their lives.
