"Trump is unstable, dangerous, and unfit for his job." GOP Senator Bob Corker





Republican senators think Trump is nuts!

However, the folks who voted for him and still support him are sticking with the nut because he recently put an "R" after his name. Those same supporters continue to blame the "DemocRATS," Marxists, Hillary, and President Obama for Trump's miserable standing in the polls and his miserable record presidenting.

Whom do Lord Dampnut's supporters blame for the GOP senators' accurate assessment of America's Nut-in-Chief?

I have an idea. Lord Dampnut's supporters should look in the mirror to find out.



New York Times:


Senator Bob Corker, the Republican chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, charged in an interview on Sunday that President Trump was treating his office like “a reality show,” with reckless threats toward other countries that could set the nation “on the path to World War III.” 

In an extraordinary rebuke of a president of his own party, Mr. Corker said he was alarmed about a president who acts “like he’s doing ‘The Apprentice’ or something.” “He concerns me,” Mr. Corker added. “He would have to concern anyone who cares about our nation.” 

 Mr. Corker’s comments capped a remarkable day of sulfurous insults between the president and the Tennessee senator — a powerful, if lame-duck, lawmaker, whose support will be critical to the president on tax reform and the fate of the Iran nuclear deal.



^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^



Lord Dampnut's supporters will call Senator Corker and any other Republican politician who criticizes him a RINO. The 30 percenters wallow in their victimhood when it is they who, by their reckless voting, made America and the rest of the free world the real victims.

No matter what #45 does to shame himself and our country, his 30 percenters will stand by him proving to sane Republicans, Democrats, Libertarians, and Independents that it is they who will ultimately bear the shame for continuing to support the Malignant Narcissist-in-Chief.




Please note:  #45 explained the number of Puerto Ricans at his paper towel toss to Hurricane Maria victims:


“And I came in, and there was a crowd of a lot of people."


To #45:  A "crowd" is always composed of "a lot of people." No need to be redundant, even if you've bragged to people that you have the best words and that your IQ is higher than the moon's.






Extraordinary: Bob Corker says nearly every Republican Senate colleague agrees that Trump is unstable, dangerous, and unfit for his job.



#45 is a liar:




Source familiar says claims made in Trump’s tweets about Corker “are false.”

“The president called the senator early last week and asked him to reconsider his decision not to seek reelection and reaffirmed that he would have endorsed him, as he has said many times.”
Corker’s Chief of Staff to me just now: “Last week President Trump called Senator Corker and asked him to reconsider his decision not to seek reelection and said I would have endorsed you.”

Well, talk is cheap. When are they going to do something about it? They, along with the House, are the ones who can. At every stage in the primaries and the general election, Republican leaders chickened out and backed down from stopping Trump even though they obviously knew how unfit he was to be President. If they keep sitting on their hands until he makes the ultimate blunder and the artillery shells start raining down on Seoul, history won't judge them any more kindly because they knew he was dangerous all along. Quite the contrary.

If the GOPers in Congress don't act on what Corker has said, then, yes, history will be cruel to them.

Here's more on how Corker and other top GOP senators see Trump's reckless behavior as POTUS:

"Corker’s comments to Haberman are without precedent since the Watergate era. It’s been nearly half a century since a Republican in either house of Congress so thoroughly criticized a sitting president of their own party. Keep in mind that Haberman observed that Corker was “speaking carefully and purposefully,” as would any skilled top-rank politician. That factor makes it all the more significant that key members of the chattering class, including Michael Smerconish – one of the most prominent figures in the sane wing of conservative punditerati – said this this morning:

“This is a top Republican who is unplugged now and saying things that people have only said off the record or whispered about in the halls of Congress,” [CNN New Day co-host and former FOX News journo Alyson] Camerota said.

Daily Beast editor John Avlon agreed, saying that Corker is using “drop the mic” terms to describe Corker’s honesty.

“This is the head of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee,” Avlon continued. “When he said that President Trump is courting World War III and the White House is an adult daycare center and every day is an exercise in containment because the president treats it like a reality show — that’s not a Democrat playing partisan politics to criticize the president.”

“The lawyer in me hears something different. I’m thinking of the 25th Amendment, Section 4, which speaks to a president who is unable to discharge the powers of duties of his office,” [CNN host Michael] Smerconish said. “Let’s just reflect on some of the word choices that senator made. Post-Charlottesville, he was questioning the stability of the president. Now he’s using the word ‘reckless, chaos.’ Now he is saying ‘he concerns me.’ I think he’s planting seeds for questioning the fitness, the mental fitness of the president pursuant to the 25th Amendment to continue with his responsibilities.”

"I’m all for everybody leaving the game. Too many black folks seem to think they are above the law. They should realize and understand that bad things happen to white people too. They should also comply with police instructions and file grievences after being processed."

Lee Arnold said...

In unloading on Mr. Trump, Mr. Corker, a two-term senator from Tennessee, said in public what many of his Republican colleagues say in private — that the president is dangerously erratic and unstable, that he treats his high post like a television show and that he is reckless enough to stumble the country into a nuclear war.

In their self righteous blindness and self inflicted ignorance the 32 percenters and His Trumpness will continue to careen towards the abyss.

History WILL be brutally critical of His Trumpness' and his administration. Congress and the Senate will be savaged by history as well.

Dave Miller said...

I'm sure we will hear very soon that Corker is a RINO and that he is a turncoat because he is not supporting a GOP President.

Never will the extremists consider that maybe, just maybe, in their haste to not elect Hillary, they elected a man who embodies all of the selfish, egomaniac, non serious, lying traits they for years said disgust them.

Anonymous, Anonymous, Anonymous, where did you find that quote? Let me guess. Not on a liberal blog or news site. It sounds like something a middle school underachieving kid would write.

Lee, I'm glad people like Sen. Corker are speaking out. It won't change the rabid right's mind about the jerk they voted for, but reasonable, reachable people will start to see what a dangerous fool #45 is. The chairman of #45's own senate foreign relations committee is concerned about the reckless nut who heads their party.

TSoFCaRJThe Trumpanzees will never admit their horrid mistake, and we, who knew from the beginning that #45 was a disaster, will be the ones who'll suffer because of their foolishness.

Dave, The 30 percenters will never admit they voted for someone far worse than Hillary could ever be.

Who says President Moron is a war monger?

He had one of his stooges declare that the "war on coal" is over.
"At an event in eastern Kentucky, Scott Pruitt, the head of the Environmental Protection Agency, said that his predecessors had departed from regulatory norms in crafting the Clean Power Plan"
I don't know what he means by "regulatory norms" unless it refers to actual regulation.

Now there are rumblings that he's going to use executive action to undermine the Affordable Care Act.
I'm still wondering where the backlash is.

Oh, since Puerto Rico has plenty of paper towels, the Jones Act waiver has expire and won't be renewed.
The man is just crap. It just gets worse.
