New York Magazine: “His association with Nick Fuentes has put him in a category of his own even by the standards of the far-right Trumpist wing of the GOP… Almost as befuddling is that House Republican Leader Kevin McCarthy has yet to even chastise Gosar for his repeated associations with the extreme fringes.”
Said one GOP operative: “I don’t know what the fuck is happening.”
“McCarthy’s office has not responded to requests for comment from Intelligencer on Gosar going back to February. That’s a change from McCarthy’s past practice as leader. … One reason for the quiet is that Republicans haven’t been forced to play defense on Gosar like they recently were over Greene. While her comments drove news cycles and [Steve] King became a national figure, Gosar flies under the radar of the national media. Part of this is chance… But it is also because Democrats have remained relatively quiet.”
