House Speaker Kevin McCarthy on Tuesday said he doesn't know if former President Donald Trump has the best shot among Republicans to beat President Biden in 2024.
Mr. McCarthy, California Republican, told CNBC’s “Squawk Box” that Mr. Trump can beat Mr. Biden in a matchup.
Mr. McCarthy criticized Mr. Trump for his role in the events leading to the Jan. 6, 2021, protest at the Capitol, but he’s made up with him and is considered reliably loyal to the ex-president, the front runner in the 2024 GOP primary.
