J.D. Vance on Whether He’ll Endorse John Thune To Be the GOP Leader in the New Senate: ‘It’s Really Not My Business’

‘It’s the business of Republican senators to determine who their next leader will be’

EXCERPT:

VANCE: “Man, it‘s just not my business. It‘s the business of Republican senators to determine who their next leader will be. I will say about John Thune that we have a very good relationship. He has a very good relationship with the president of the United States. That doesn‘t mean you don‘t disagree with people from time to time, or have a preference or a priority. That‘s going to be different from the Senate majority leader, but it‘s really not my business weeks, months before a Senate election to talk about who should be the next Republican majority leader. I suspect John Thune will run again. I suspect that he‘ll get the support of a lot of his colleagues, but I would defer to those folks about who their next leader is going to be. The most important thing, I think John Thune would agree with this.”
