Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) said Wednesday that he would not accept a nomination to the Supreme Court shortly after President Trump named him on a shortlist of candidates for the high court.
I appreciate the Presidents confidence in listing me as a potential Supreme Court nominee, Hawley tweeted Wednesday. But as I told the President, Missourians elected me to fight for them in the Senate, and I have no interest in the high court. I look forward to confirming constitutional conservatives.
I think that Josh Hawley is more interested in someday nominating people to the USSC than being a member of the USSC.
