Rubio Suggests Senate Republicans Should Consider Ousting McConnell From Leadership
The Federalist ^ | 11/11/22 | By: Shawn Fleetwood

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.

We need to rid ourselves of 70 and 80 year old career politicians. It’s making us look like your grandfather’s party and that’s crippling us.

Republicans can implement term limits. It can be a rule of the Republican Party. Or it might be a tradition of voters to refuse to elect a Senator more than twice. The party would have much younger and more effective politicians.

He’s responsible for the Supreme Court that was pretty good. However, he hasn’t done much else.

The house is well on its way with a movement of rino eviction. But the Senate’s repubs are predominately moderate.

McConnell spent money in Alaska to elect the McConnell leadership voter that votes with the Democrats the most.

McConnell, not Trump, is the enemy.

That’s my take on it as well. It was a bold move. Hawley backed him up as well. I think Mitchs sabotaging a fantastic candidate like Blake Masters and Kelly Tshibaka may have been the last straw. Strong conservatives like them are the future. Mitch is the past.

He did not shove the vaccines down our throats. The vaccine companies hrld them back until after he lost the election so he wouldn’t get credit for them. He never mandated them either.
