2022 MIDTERM ELECTION/GOP/MITCH MCCONNELL: “Former President Trump on Thursday renewed his feud with Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) by calling for Senate Republicans to find a new leader ahead of the midterm elections, suggesting doing so would boost their chances of taking back the upper chamber next year.

Asked by Fox Business’s Maria Bartiromo how Republicans will fare in the 2022 elections, Trump said he expects GOP candidates to do very well but said the party needs new leadership in the Senate.

‘I think we’re going to do very well. We need good leadership. Mitch McConnell has not done a great job, I think they should change Mitch McConnell,’ Trump said…

‘I’m looking at the right people to endorse and when I endorse people it means a lot,’ he said. ‘I think we’re going to have a great victory in 2022. I think we’re going to take back the House. Everybody’s working very hard.'”
