    Funny where do you live to say that?

    This part of America has been great since Trump became president.

    2/3 vote for what? If you are talking about a treaty and are referring to the Iran agreement you are of base since that was not a treaty. Treaties are what requires 2/3 vote of Congress.

    Both TN Senators need to go for being completely incompetent.

    Did not flow at the time but this is likely the reason, Trump was pressuring Senators to obstruct justice:

    Maybe Corker has too much integrity to continue to be associated with the reality TV star host and his followers, all of whom are determined to wreck the country and wreck the Republican Party.

    It's quite possible.

    Corker is a savvy politician and doesn't do things spur of the moment or without considering potential consequences. Corker extended his hand to Trump early on, was considered as Veep and Secy of State. Then has given Trump the toughest criticism by a Republican.

    IMO, the criticism of Trump, at this moment in history is strategic. Distancing himself from Trump before he faces re-election in 2018 is a big deal and doesn't bode well for Trump, IMO. Being on the Foreign Relations and Banking committees, I wouldn't be surprised to hear that he had classified information that helped lead him to criticize Trump.

    Corker is certainly not beholden to Trump politically, and he is a loyal Republican. So, you may be right. He's up for re-election in 2018, and I feel certain he wants to be known as one that puts country over party going into the campaign.

    I just keep remembering Benjamin Wittes saying Comey decided to make notes because he felt those in the White House were not honorable people, when things like Corker being openly critical come up.

    Comey was right. Those in the White House are not honorable people.

    Not sure what's going through Corker's head but I hope this actually lands him more support from the people who aren't under Trump's spell. I'm going to make a donation to his campaign which I otherwise would not have considered. I'll support any Republican candidate that Trump and his loyalists oppose. If they oppose them, it's no doubt for some stupid reason.

    The swamp will not drain itself. The corrupt on BOTH sides, that's right libs, BOTH sides will fight to keep their greedy paws in the money. The right wants the swamp drained, the left want their corrupt to remain in place.

    Comey was a leaker and is a criminal. My post was right on the money. You will keep the corrupt in place if they're on your side. Sickening.

    Next time just type "I love Donald Trump because he's so dreamy". It will save you time and keep my eyes from bleeding.

    And you should get "I'd blow Hussein" on your forehead because it's so painfully obvious you would fight for the opportunity to get on it.

    "Hussein". Love it. I don't know who Hussein is and my husband prefers that I'd not blow anyone else.

    Is it hard to type with Trump's penis in one hand?

    It wasn't a treaty because Corker, McConnell, and Obama twisted the rules and the constitution into a pretzel and put a coat of yellow paint on it to dress it up like an executive agreement.

    That's a little like saying the serial killer has too much compassion.

    No, it's actually nothing like that at all.

    It was not a treaty because not all international agreements need to be treaties under the Constitution.

    If you are comfortable with your belief in this, you might just be surprised. Abuse of power and obstruction are two peas.........

    Obstruction of justice is a crime and can be prosecuted only by Dept of Justice. Congress has no power or authority to prosecute crimes.
