Quick Glance: Trump Ally Barrasso Steps Back from McConnell Succession Race
- Republican Senator John Barrasso (R-Wyo.) has opted to run for the position of Assistant Republican Leader this year instead of joining Senators John Cornyn (R-Tex.) and John Thune (R-S.D.) in a bid for leader, as confirmed by Axios.
- Barrasso was favored by the more conservative bloc in the Senate and has the closest relationship with former President Trump among the 'three Johns.' His exit could pave the way for a new conservative contender.
- Barrasso holds the third-highest position among Senate Republicans as conference chair, and neither Thune nor Cornyn can run for GOP whip again due to term limits. This makes Barrasso almost a shoo-in.
- "I have had time to reflect on how I might best serve the Republican Conference and our country," said Barrasso in a statement on Tuesday morning.
