    Bob Corker told me he's begun discussions with staff on legislation to push back on Trump tariffs, says Trump is “abusing the authorities given to him” and is "interfering inappropriately” in markets. “We seem to want to punish our allies and befriend our enemies,” he told me.

        Split emerging in GOP: Cornyn, who has raised concerns about the tariffs, throws cold water on doing anything legislatively to rein in Trump on tariffs on Mexico, Canada and the EU. "I think we're going to keep talking .... I think that's primarily an Executive Branch function."

        Trump’s tactics benefit Cornyn & cronies who are consolidating Repub rule. Cornyn & McConnell are free to indulge their donors knowing that the disengaged leader in the WH will give his rubber stamp. Mutual dependency obtains when both branches are concealing Kremlin money trail.pic.twitter.com/tvqZu1DZKI

        Hey @SenBobCorker, while you're fiddling about with tariffs, the GOP grifter who just declared himself ABOVE THE LAW is setting up an Axis of Evil meeting with Putin, Kim Jong Il, & himself. WE are now in the Axis of Evil. Maybe stop that from happening if you are an American

        Gee, I've only said that ever since Trump started attacking our friends with tariffs on the ridiculous basis of national security while helping China (ZTE!) and Russia out. So glad that Corker finally caught up. Let's see if all the Rs find their missing spines now. *rolleyes*

        Bob Corker doesn't want a rogue POTUS to shift markets and make the inside trade information he's used to make himself rich obsolete. What he alleges is true but his response is nothing more than self-interest.
