New York Republican Mike Lawler, who scored an upset victory in an otherwise lackluster GOP midterm outing, appeared to join the chorus of conservatives nudging the GOP away from former President Donald Trump.
While refraining from explicitly spurning a Trump 2024 ticket, Lawler, whose new district will include Trump's Westchester golf retreat, contended that the GOP needs to be forward-looking and shouldn't dwell too heavily upon the past if it hopes to achieve future political victories going forward, appearing to take a subtle jab at Trump."I think the president is going to make a determination as to what he wants to do with respect to running.
— Kaitlan Collins November 10, 2022 Grumblings about Trump as the party standard-bearer in 2024 intensified within conservative circles in the wake of a poorer-than-expected showing on election night. Some speculated that Trump had been a drag on the party and bemoaned that he flexed his kingmaker powers to elevate weaker candidates. Others argued abortion was a major factor in the red wave becoming a pink ripple.
"I didn't run on somebody else's platform. I didn't run to be a rubber stamp or whenever. I ran on the issues that are facing the American people and facing the people that stayed in New York, and I have offered real solutions," Lawler added. By doing so, he waded into a district held by Rep. Mondaire Jones , who then opted to run in the 10th District but lost the primary. Ironically, Democrat Pat Ryan prevailed in the 18th District, from which Maloney relocated. Lawler credited redistricting for playing a key role in his breakthrough victory.
