President Barack Obama raised money across California this weekend, while U.S. House Majority Leader Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-CA)45%
went into seclusion upon returning home to Bakersfield. Obama even poked fun at the turmoil in Republican ranks, which intensified when McCarthy withdrew from the Speaker’s race in the House.
At a fundraiser hosted by rapper Kanye West, who says he will run for president in 2020, Obama quipped: “You may have heard about how Kanye is thinking about running…for speaker of the House. It couldn’t get any stranger.”
