Donald Trump, in a meeting with House Republican Leader Kevin McCarthy on Thursday, agreed to help the GOP retake control of the House in 2022.

McCarthy went to Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort in South Florida where the two men discussed many topics, starting with how Republicans can win the seven seats needed in next year’s midterm elections to retake the House, according to an account of the meeting provided by the Save America PAC.

“President Trump’s popularity has never been stronger than it is today, and his endorsement means more than perhaps any endorsement at any time,” Save America said in a statement, calling the meeting “a very good and cordial one.”

A Jan. 15 Pew Research poll showed only a 29% job approval for Trump, the lowest of his presidency, as he was about to leave office.

McCarthy also said in a statement that Trump committed to helping elect Republicans in the House and Senate in 2022. He said a Republican majority “will listen to our fellow Americans and solve the challenges facing our nation” while Democrats have a divisive agenda “such as impeaching a president who is now a private citizen.”

The statements from McCarthy and Save America both included a picture of a smiling Trump standing next to the minority leader at the gilded Mar-a-Lago.

The McCarthy visit came after the minority leader had said the former president “bears responsibility” for the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol by a mob of his supporters. That assault, which left five people dead, prompted 10 House Republicans, including Liz Cheney of Wyoming, a top McCarthy lieutenant, to vote for Trump’s impeachment.

It sucks, but republicans will definitely take the house in 2022. Democrats lost like 14 seats In 2020. the moderate democrats are going to get crushed unfortunately

I an terrified we are at the part in the story where Hitler gets arrested for his coup and then released only to rise to power years later. I can see the Dems bungling the trial and people, exhausted from the pandemic and accompanying depression, reelecting an authoritarian who lies to them and tells them he can fix it. I can see democracy ending. They've made it clear they are willing to end it by force if neccessary. They have no morals, no remorse. It will be worse next time.

If Trump does not break with his base from the GOP, they will take control back next election. It's an unfortunate fact. The democrats need to get as much done as possible before that happens.

I have a very bad feeling about the upcoming elections. I really think (but hope not) that the right will take back their power

I have this terribly premonition that they’ll all be back very soon. Wouldn’t be surprised if the economy crashes (due to covid) and Biden gets blamed.

This is why I still don't feel safe in America even under Biden.  Not only do the neoliberals have to deliver -- Trumpism isn't going away anytime soon!  Eek!
