YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Senate #republicans have to choose just how loyal to #DonaldTrump they want their next leader to be in the wake of Mitch #McConnell’s bombshell decision to step aside after the November election.

Three “Johns” — #Thune of #SouthDakota, #Cornyn of #Texas and #Barrasso of #Wyoming — are the most likely candidates to succeed McConnell, who has occupied the party leader’s prime suite of offices just steps from the #Senate floor for the last 17 years.

Unlike McConnell, who has a fraught relationship with the former president, all three men have endorsed #Trump in his third bid for the White House. But their ties to Trump — whose grip on the Republican Party has strengthened through a wave of primary victories — vary.
