        It's funny, when people say "look", they usually mean "I know this looks bad, but here's my spin."

        Reminder, Blackburn is responsible for allowing the pharmaceutical companies to flood the country with opiods. Just one of the many reasons she is beyond awful. http://www.timesfreepress.com/news/opinion/times/story/2017/oct/17/sohn-marshblackburns-opioid-sleight-hand/454786/ …pic.twitter.com/F5PHEMA3qL

        @SenBobCorker: the @GOP re-election committee leaked that he was ‘warned against saying the TN Dem candidate was a good man’. WTF‽ The GOP confirms they don’t care the caliber of the Senate... only that the @SenateGOP rules. #EnoughSaid

        It is a deliberate ploy not to say a candidate's name in order not to give them any name recognition. However, it's typically only used on opponents!

        Not only that. Say, in 2022 or 2026, Bob Corker chooses to run for #TNGov. Dems could use the footage in attack ads. I think he's expecting Diane Black to lose the Governor's race, too, and will take a stab at it in 2022. But footage of him endorsing Blackburn could hurt him.

        Here I was thinking that Trump was the head of the GOP Crime Family. Come to find out the actual crime boss is @SenMajLdr. It’s a very sad day for this country when grown men like @SenBobCorker cower to thugs like McConnell & Trump and so give up their voice & ethical standing.

        Corker’s thought bubble: “Yes, I’m outta here, but I also have to be able to show my face back home and I don’t want half of the Rs I know back there to blacklist me.”

        If you're going to mention Blackburn, you might consider filling in some details - such as her contribution to the opioid epidemic among her other Kleptocratic atrocities.pic.twitter.com/JTVtIXBrLF
