Joplin businessperson David Humphreys, who donated to U.S. Sen. Josh Hawley’s first campaign, on Thursday denounced him.
Humphreys, president and CEO of Tamko Building Products, said Hawley, R-Missouri, is a “political opportunist” who used “irresponsible, inflammatory, and dangerous tactics” to help incite the Jan. 6 insurrection at the Capitol.
Former U.S. Sen. Jack Danforth, Hawley’s political mentor, yesterday said supporting Hawley was “the worst mistake I ever made in my life.”
Additionally, Simon & Schuster canceled a contract with Hawley for an upcoming book release.
