Danforth Slams Hawley: Supporting Him Was "the Worst Mistake of My Life."
[quote]Former Sen. John Danforth, a key backer of fellow GOP Missourian Sen. Josh Hawley in the 2018 Republican primaries, called that support “the worst mistake of my life” after pro-Trump mobs breached the Capitol Wednesday, seeking to halt Congress's affirmation of the 2020 election results.
“Supporting Josh and trying so hard to get him elected to the Senate was the worst mistake I ever made in my life,” Danforth told St. Louis Today in an interview published Thursday.
“Yesterday was the physical culmination of the long attempt … to foment a lack of public confidence in our democratic system,” he added. “It is very dangerous to America to continue pushing this idea that government doesn’t work and that voting was fraudulent.”[/quote]
