Sen. Mike Lee wants candidates for GOP leader to endorse diffusing their own authority by requiring high numbers of Republican senators to endorse critical tactical decisions.

On the other side of the divide are senators like North Carolinaâs Thom Tillis , who says any Republican agreeing to Lee ’s demands would lose his vote for leader.

Lee and Tillis ' diametrically opposed viewpoints illustrate the stark divisions within the GOP as Republicans careen toward a hotly anticipated election to replace Mitch McConnell .

Next GOP leader may have to accommodate Leeâs allies in some way.
