        Even if Corker votes NO now it could still pass and he would still benefit. He must do one better if he wishes to redeem himself. Get other Repub senators to vote the bill down. Right now, just one more would suffice.

        Corker said that if tax bill added one Penney to to the deficit he wouldn't sign it. He needs to explain why he is signing it.

        A true statement. However @SenBobCorker, for you to get to yes after none of your reasons were addressed but an incentive to you was inserted, doesn’t bode well. Oh and he may deny it but @JohnCornyn all but admitted the dirty dealings that went on last minute.

        @TeamJakeAbbey Sen.Corker should tell the truth. No one accused you of writing the bill yourself.

        Then @SenBobCorker should read the whole bill, not just a two page summary, and then vote NO. If he doesn't, we'll know why. #CorkerKickback

        That’s not the question. The question is, did he change his vote because of the provision snuck into their final bill that would benefit him and Trump?

        That little addition to the bill gave @SenBobCorker 14 million reasons to sell out the middle class and enrich himsrlf. What a spineless little man. Short in stature and character.
