UPDATE 12:15 p.m. ET:
Donald Trump Jr. is getting even more aggressive in calling out McCarthy critics, specifically Boebert, Gaetz, and Perry:
We all want House leadership to be as conservative as possible, but I'm not okay with throwing House Leadership to Dems & Never Trumpers. Being fine with Hakeem Jeffries becoming Speaker simply out of spite for McCarthy isn't what any Republican voted for in November.
Disaster. https://t.co/B1UowXqeA8

UPDATE 12:12 p.m. ET:
Sorry. Trump is wrong in this case. It isn't out of spite. If he thinks it is, then he really doesn't understand the movement.
