      Corker, fired up on floor, says GOP won’t let him get a vote on floor because they are scared about fighting w Trump. “We might poke the bear!” referring to Trump. “My gosh if the president gets upset with us we might not be in the majority,” he says, referring to his colleagues

      Corker takes a whack at Cornyn, who told us last week they wanted to avoid a fight with Trump over tariffs headed into midterms. “I heard the senior senator from Texas say, ‘We might upset the president of the United States before the midterms.’ ... I can’t believe it.

          Hmmm...last time I checked our constitution, the legislative branch was co-equal with the executive branch. And one of their roles is to hold the executive branch accountable. @GOP DO YOUR JOB!!!!

          He can't believe it? That's what the Republican party is. Hypocrite's of the worse kind. But thank God someone from that side of the isle is poking the bear. On his way to retirement.

          Yes I agree. I am also disappointing at many Dems that are saying nothing. We need outrage, on the border situation as well as N.K.

          Who has @SenBobCorker back? Because @MarshaBlackburn would rather make Trump happy than help our workers. If @PhilBredesen was on that senate floor he would be right there pushing to help TN not to keep Trump happy.

          I believe it! GOP are so afraid of Trump that they’re willing to give up our democracy. We’ll need to fix this ourselves by voting blue in record numbers!

          If these senators are afraid of Trump then they are not representing We the people. They are more interested in themselves, just like Trump.

          Co-equal, checks and balances, oversight = Congress' job. Complicit agreement is not their job.
