McCarthy supporter on Speaker deadlock: 'I think this debate is actually good'

Kevin McCarthy came up short in three rounds of voting for House Speaker on Tuesday. One supporter of his bid is Rep. Lisa McClain of Michigan. First elected to Congress in 2020, McClain voted against certifying Arizona and Pennsylvania electors for President Biden’s victory and has denied the valid results of the election that year. She joined Geoff Bennett to discuss the Speaker vote.
