My take: Trump has dirt on McCarthy (strong possibility, no?) and his endorsement is meant to be used as leverage to get MAGA committee chairs in because THAT is where the power is if the Speaker is just Trump's puppet.

I just read that Miss Piggy says McCarthy is compromised. PDJT strongly endorses him and Miss Piggy comes out against him adds weight to my theory.

Alternate theory: Trump endorses McCarthy - Freedom Caucus stands firm, Trump gets nomination and can claim plausible deniability. i.e. "I never wanted the position. I even endorsed McCarthy but the Republican Caucus has spoken so I'll except the position."
