Kevin McCarthy's seven-year-plus dream to become House speaker finally became reality early Saturday morning.The California Republican's tumultuous journey concluded after six Republican holdouts voted present, allowing him to win on the 15th ballot with a lower majority threshold.McCarthy credited Donald Trump for his support in the speaker's race, and the former president was quick to bask in the glory of McCarthy's victory.
