Donald Trump Jr. praised Conservative Republicans, saying they reached the "best deal" conservatives "have ever" seen from Republican leadership as the GOP comes together behind Leader Kevin McCarthy for Speaker of the House.
"Proud of my conservative friends in the house who just won the best deal the right has ever gotten from Republican Leadership," Trump, Jr. wrote.
"We need to put petty personal disputes aside & do what’s best for the movement. This is a transformational deal that will change Congress for the better!" Trump, Jr. added.
Trump, Jr.: 'Transformational Deal'
Proud of my conservative friends in the house who just won the best deal the right has ever gotten from Republican Leadership. We need to put petty personal disputes aside & do what's best for the movement. This is a transformational deal that will change Congress for the better!

"The first speaker vote on Friday, which was the twelfth so far, evidenced that the sides were coming closer together as McCarthy picked up 14 votes from those who had repeatedly voted against him, bringing his total to 213. In the next round, McCarthy did even better, reaching 214 votes. He needs 218 votes if all members are present and voting, and the threshold drops one vote for every two members who are absent or vote present," reported Breitbart.
"As he showed momentum during Friday’s initial vote, Turning Point USA Founder and President Charlie Kirk also lauded the Republicans who had held out and began voting for McCarthy after a developing deal became apparent," according to Breitbart.
