Florida Republican Sen. Marco Rubio added himself to the growing list of GOP senators suggesting that the party must reevaluate its leadership in the upper chamber following Republicans’ disappointing performance in the 2022 midterms.

In a tweet posted Friday morning, Rubio called for the Senate GOP to postpone its currently scheduled leadership vote next week, saying that Republican members of the upper chamber must ensure party leadership is comprised of individuals willing to advance the will of GOP voters.

“First we need to make sure that those who want to lead us are genuinely committed to fighting for the priorities & values of the working Americans (of every background) who gave us big wins in states like #Florida,” Rubio said.

Even coming from the RINO Rubio - I’ve been saying McConnel should have been ousted a decade ago...

They should wait until all of the Senate elections are decided, including possible litigation. New members need to vote on this.

Good. I’m thinking Mcconnell has that “Death is near” look. Anyone else notice it?

UGH, the thing that separates GOP elected officials from true leaders is action. What’s next, a stern tweet?

No he hasn’t. He works to keep the republican senate in the minority

Whomever he works for does not think he is a disgrace.

He has been a liar. - and continues to be

For the time being let’s give Rubio a bit of credit and encouragement. He just won a new 6 year term and that is usually when they are most feckless.
