Sen. Josh Hawley of Missouri announced his support for Sen. John Cornyn of Texas on Friday in the race to replace Senate GOP leader Mitch McConnell. At this point, this is the first public endorsement for Cornyn.
Cornyn is running to succeed McConnell alongside Republican Sens. Rick Scott of Florida and John Thune of South Dakota.
"I'm backing John Cornyn for majority leader," Hawley said in a statement. "In the last two years, nobody has done more to win back the majority than he has."

I’m from Texas and I like Hawley. But, I do not like Cornyn and there is zero doubt many Texans agree with me. I think it’s doubtful he will be re-elected.

I am from Florida and I WANT Rick Scott. Not because he’s from Florida but because he is not a damned politician, he made his millions in the private business sector. Cornyn is a establishment guy an one of his advisors called Trump a psychopath! RICK SCOTT, and dang is Hawley WTF is wrong with you?

It’s apparently a mandate for Repub Senators to get the submission and deference jab. The same stuff they give to prisoners to chemically emasculate them.
Like kittens in a box, these GOP fellows.
