#1 RINO, glad he is quitting. He handed Obama the Iran deal.

#2 Butt hurt that he could not get the President's support for re-election or senior administration posting. Actions have consequences Senator.

#3 Isn't he the mook who wrote the law (rule?) requiring a two-thirds Senate vote to kill the Iran agreement, replacing the constitutional requirement of two-thirds to ratify as a treaty? In a sane world that alone should have been enough to throw him out of the Senate. The RINO rot runs deep.

#5 Mercer:

They’ve Incited War With Russia, Now The UniParty Is Worried About … ‘World War III’

Republican Senator Bob Corker is worried that President Trump is “reckless enough to stumble [sic] the country into a nuclear war.” This from the two War Parties who’ve not stopped egging Trump on about Russia, fomenting American aggression against that potential partner. The president wanted—was willing—to make peace with Russian; the UniParty would have none of it. Now DemoPublicans are worried.

President Trump has failed miserably in forging forward with peace vis-a-vis Russia and sending out competent spokespersons to explain that campaign promise and the attendant policy of diplomacy and American First.

… Senator Bob Corker, the Republican chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, charged in an interview on Sunday that President Trump was treating his office like “a reality show,” with reckless threats toward other countries that could set the nation “on the path to World War III.”

In an extraordinary rebuke of a president of his own party, Mr. Corker said he was alarmed about a president who acts “like he’s doing ‘The Apprentice’ or something.”

“He concerns me,” Mr. Corker added. “He would have to concern anyone who cares about our nation.”

Mr. Corker’s comments capped a remarkable day of sulfurous insults between the president and the Tennessee senator — a powerful, if lame-duck, lawmaker, whose support will be critical to the president on tax reform and the fate of the Iran nuclear deal.

#6 The winner in all of this immature arguing are the adults in the house - Blackburn for Senate and Bill Lee for Governor of the Great State of Tennessee.

The losers are Corker, Trump, and Haslam. We in Tennessee see this as a "strange" argument since Trump really was going to support Corker...and it would have done him no good just like his support of Strange in Alabama. When Strange lost - Donald dumped ole Bob like a hot rock. We don't want Corker, we don' want Haslam, and now even Trump is getting on our nerves. Donald's act is growing thin...

#7 ...being around a loud New Yorker can get on a lot of non-New Yorkers' nerves. Wonder how its felt in Pyongyang. Someone else has said, “You were given the choice between war and dishonor. You chose dishonor and you will have war.”

Respectfully, it might be helpful to remember where one's 'nerves' might be with a President Hildebeest.

#9 President Trump has failed miserably in forging forward with peace vis-a-vis Russia

And how much of that blame goes to those Demopublicans that have fought him every step of the way?

#10 Respectfully, it might be helpful to remember where one's 'nerves' might be with a President Hildebeest. Posted by Besoeker I would crawl through broken glass to vote for Trump over the beest, but that still doesn't mean I have to like him...

#11 Corker is uncorked....

Actually dipshit, the deal with Iran has a greater risk of WWIII as a regional conflict there has a super big chance to go global.

And isn't it comforting that you won't have to like him in 2020 when the Democratic candidate will be even worse?

#13 Corky's phones are completely flooded. It's impossible to get through. Except maybe if you were calling from Iran.

That being said, for your entertainment.

#14 Two committees with the most potential for graft; Foreign Relations and Armed Services. And you need the FBI in your pocket to make it work. Why else be a RINO?
