LISTEN: Sean Hannity Calls For Mitch McConnell to Be Replaced as GOP Leader

For the last four years, Mitch McConnell has taken advantage of Donald Trump’s power. The Senate Majority Leader has been able to push through 3 Conservative Supreme Court Justices and pass a major tax cut.

Sounds like it. Republicans need new leadership. These guys have been there forever.”
