    🧵 1. McConnell’s attacks on Donald Trump & Rick Scott are indefensible Those running for Senate GOP leadership posts need to weigh in on this & commit never to sabotage Republican candidates & colleagues—particularly those who are less than two weeks away from a close election

    2. We must have clarity from the candidates running to replace McConnell on where they stand on these attacks. They must be clear on how they plan to lead the conference, and on the role of its members

    3. The Senate Republican leader is supposed to help Republicans, not undermine them Sadly, we’ve had too much of the latter That must end now
