    Corker: Trump hasn’t shown stability or competence
    http://www.politico.com/story/2017/08/17/trump-bob-corker-charlottesville-response-241751?lo=ap_a1

    Republican Sen. Bob Corker slammed Donald Trump on Thursday, urging the president to start putting the nation’s interests ahead of his own and calling for “radical changes” at the White House.

    Speaking to local media in his home state of Tennessee, Corker admonished Trump for his response to the weekend violence in Charlottesville, Virginia, and said the president “has not demonstrated that he understands the character of this nation.”

    “I do think there need to be some radical changes,” the Senate Foreign Relations chairman said. “The president has not yet, has not yet been able to demonstrate the stability nor some of the competence that he needs to demonstrate in order to be successful. And we need for him to be successful. Our nation needs to be successful.

    Luckily for Crooked Donnie is that he inherited Obama's
    recovery from the Great Republican Recession. The good
    economic news is the result of Obama's policies, since
    few of the disastrous Crooked Donnie's policies have gone
    into effect.

    As long as the left keeps up its rhetoric, President Trump will look like the reasonable one in the room.

    FINALLY, a GOP Senator with the fortitude to speak the TRUTH about the damage that Trump is doing to the Country (and the GOP "brand").

    Trump knows that he is on the brink of going down and therefore pandering to the right wing crazies so that when he is legally and rightfully removed from office they will revolt and cause chaos. He is a sick self-absorbed ****wad.

    Trump will destroy the GOP and start a third party.....the GOP, on moral grounds and for conservative values, may just have to let this happen for the sake of all Americans.

    Entrenched. The political whores are speaking out. Corker has been working to undermine Trump and takes numerous cheap shots. His constituents are very unhappy.
    And he is up for reelection.

    Yeah, it's tough to handle the truth Corker is telling at his peril but respect to him for doing the right thing.

    Perhaps you haven't noticed, but the GOP isn't exactly the most popular thing going. At least not the the type that is represented by the likes of McCain.

    LOL, sure thing. Liberal truth. Nothing like working to undermine your own party.

    41% approval rating among Tennessee republicans and he has a contender. High approval of Trump there.

    Yes, it makes no difference. There has been so much mud thrown at President Trump that nothing sticks.

    Maybe it is good that few of Donnie Dildos executive orders have gone into effect if we may be back into a secession. RememnervpeoplecDonnievDildo us not a conservative.

    Why is he a POC in your opinion? Because he does not kiss The Donnie Dildo's butt like Trumpeizdas do?

    Yes, and I stand by my statement. You see, the left's 24/7 onslaught against President Trump makes any and all criticism of him just noise. There is so much of it that folks just begin to tune it out....ALL of it, no matter the source. Keep up the good work.
