    Cornyn makes clear why GOP doesn’t want to push Corker bill to rein in Trump on tariffs. “This is not the time to pick a fight with the president in the run-up to the midterm election.”

        You hear that, constituents? They don't represent you. They don't care if trade wars kill your job. They represent themselves, and are more worried about saving their own job.

        Apparently the ONLY good time for Republicans “to pick a fight with the President” is when they have announced their retirement and have one foot out the door!

        The GOP avoiding "picking a fight" with POUTS is a familiar strategy. For the GOP, it's more about taking and staying in power than about doing the right thing, or even defending our national security. #GOPComplicit #VoteThemOut #NoRA #maga? #hannity #judgejeaninepic.twitter.com/FznudDqXui

        The cowardice of elected men in this country is disgusting. A large majority of women already knew this but thank you @JohnCornyn for reminding us why you can’t be trusted with the responsibility to lead any longer. I look forward to the female-led #BlueWave crushing your party.

        So, seems that he pretty much just admitted that the ability of his party to rule the country is more important to Republicans... than the country is. That’s despicable.
