Josh Hawley (R-MO) told Fox News he was “concerned” that Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) could affect the Republican Party’s chances of winning in 2024 if he remains in his position on Thursday.<br /><br />After Fox News host Laura Ingraham asked, “McConnell stays in as leader through the end of 2024. How does that affect Republicans’ chances Are you concerned” Hawley said, “Yeah, I am concerned.”<br /><br />He continued, “I get asked about it constantly. I understand why people are concerned about it, I’m concerned about it. Listen Laura, I’ll be honest with you, I didn’t vote for Mitch McConnell for leader. He is not my choice to be leader and so I think we need a change. I’ve said that for months.”<br /><br />Earlier on Thursday, Hawley told reporters that McConnell should step down from his position in light of his repeated health issues in recent months.<br /><br />“If you’re concerned about the president’s ability to do his job, and I am, and a lot of Republicans say they are, you have to be concerned when it’s someone from your own party,” he said. “Do I think McConnell should be Leader No. If you’re concerned about Biden’s ability to do his job, then you’ve got to be concerned when it’s somebody of your own party.”<br /><br />Despite his recent public freezing incidents, McConnell has rejected calls for his retirement.<br /><br />“I’m going to finish my term as leader and I’m going to finish my Senate term,” he declared this week.
