CORKER rails on “cult-like” GOP, directing ire at GOP leadership for not wanting to take on Trump on core issues like trade: “We have an administration that wakes up everyday on an hoc basis, just making stuff up with no coherency to it,” he told us, pushing for his tariff plan

Corker makes clear his ire is directed at GOP leaders more than rank-and-file. Asked him: You feel like it’s a cult-like situation in your party right now? “Leadership in general not wishing to poke the bear, absolutely, I mean because you know its all about the next election”

The Senate Foreign Relations chairman doesn't know if he can trust what the president is saying about NK. On Trump saying he'll suspend 'war games:' "I don’t even know again if that’s real .. there's a lot of ad hoc comments that get made that end up not being reality."

Corker on August recess: "There’s no question that leadership in general is weary of doing anything that might upset the president ... We’re going to be here during recess generally speaking which is fine with me but it's more about trump being upset than it is anything else."

Corker could caucus with the Dems at ANY TIME.

You should Tweet that at Corker. GOP has turned into the party of Trumps First not America First.

That's what I've been calling it. Cult of Trump. His supporters are his followers. They have been easily brainwashed, they are now against American Values.

He should caucus with the Dems. In a Parliament it's called 'crossing the floor' and it happens. Him and Flake. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Canadian_politicians_who_have_crossed_the_floor …

Fat chance that will happen in the current political environment in the U.S. It’s almost as if the Republicans are being held hostage by the cult leader.

I don’t think they are too late to intervene on behalf of the country and I wish they would. I do believe it’s too late to save their party.

It is a cult. The Republican Party no longer exists, it’s the party of Trump now. Over 150 years of history, the party they began on an anti-slavery platform and gave America Lincoln. Hell of a fall

It's not just "cult-like," it's an honest to goodness cult. Corker is brave but he still doesn't want to sacrifice anything.https://mobile.twitter.com/mkraju/status/1006910391748841473 …
