Mark McCloskey, the St. Louis attorney who along with his wife grabbed national headlines last year for pointing guns at Black Lives Matter protesters, says a 2022 run for Missouri s open Senate seat is definitely a consideration.
In an interview Wednesday morning with Fox News, McCloskey added that he s been getting a lot of response as he talks to Missouri voters about a potential bid in the race to succeed retiring GOP Sen. Roy Blunt. I think there s a general outpouring of concern for what s going on currently with the erosion of the Constitution and our basic rights, McCloskey said.

St. Louis attorney Mark McCloskey hinted Tuesday that he might seek the U.S. Senate seat in Missouri that Sen. Roy Blunt’s (R-MO) impending retirement will leave open.
“I can confirm that it’s a consideration, yes,” McCloskey told
Politico in a Tuesday interview.
McCloskey said there is no official timeline for when he would enter the race, if he decides to do so.
He and his wife, Patricia, made headlines in June 2020 after pointing guns at protesters marching through their neighborhood.
The couple used an AR-15 and a pistol to defend their home while 300 protesters were marching to former St. Louis Mayor Lyda Krewson’s home. No gunshots were fired.
