Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO) said that he would not support Mitch McConnell for Senate Majority Leader if the Republican Party takes back the Senate on Tuesday.

The senator made his declaration during a campaign stop on Monday, according to political reporter Galen Bacharier.

“I don’t imagine I will, no,” Hawley reportedly said when asked if he would support Mitch McConnell. “I’m not sure if any other senator will run or not. Nobody’s indicated they would. But my view is that we need new leadership in that position.”

Bacharier added that “Hawley ticked off a list of decisions over the last 2 years he disagreed on – Ukraine funding, infrastructure & public safety bills, campaign spending in AZ/NH. ‘I did not agree with the idea that you go out there and badmouth our own candidates in the middle of an election.'”

IF turtle doesn’t win majority leader, he’ll pull a murcowski and vote dim as often as possible.

Not having that POS as majority leader would be the best thing this country has done in a generation.

Yes. I do not think McConnell is deliberately stupid or criminal, but it is clear, he is just out of gas politically. He belongs at home, like Biden, Pelosi, and the rest of the gerontocracy— not fumbling with the keys of government.

Out with the old guard. We need fresh people in leadership.

Rand would be an upgrade.

Kevin is almost as useless as Mitch. I can’t imagine why he’s still the front runner for leader. What he allowed to happen to MTG is all i need to know. Useless.

Mitch McConnell is a saboteur, and his family is on the CCP payroll.

He is disqualified.

Chip Roy strikes me as a good candidate for speaker.

Bitch McConnell should be happy to be the dorman, after his
performance over the last four years.
