Charlie Sykes: Trump is "an erratic narcissist, a serial liar"Yesterday I mentioned how a top Senate staffer-- not someone connected with Bob Corker, by the way-- told me, on condition of anonymity-- that most Senate Republicans hate TRump more than they ever hated Obama.

Leading Republican Senator says Trump is treating the presidency like a reality television show.

(ANTIWAR.COM) — Top ranking Republican Senator Bob Corker (R-TN), the chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, expressed concerns Sunday that President Trump’s reckless threats toward other countries “could set the nation on the path to World War III.”

Two dangerous crackpots: Trumpanzee and PrinceTrumpanzee was still smarting from a remark-- "Trump hasn't demonstrated the stability or competence to be successful"-- Senator Bob Corker (R-TN) told concerned constituents back in Tennessee.

Bob Corker is a mainstream conservative-- a wealthy businessman who served as the mayor of Chattanooga from 2001-05 and was then elected to the U.S.Senate in 2006, beating corrupt conservative Blue Dog Harold Ford, Jr. Rather than face the wrath of the Mercer/Bannon Machine, possibly backed by Trump, he announced a couple of weeks ago that he will not be seeking reelection in 2018. That came as a surprise since he had already amassed a $6,574,792 campaign war-chest.

The ongoing diplomatic crisis in the Gulf region undermines the fight against the Islamic State group, said Bob Corker, chairman of the influential Senate Committee on Foreign Relations.

Bob Corker, head of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, said disputes between Gulf states ‘hurt efforts’ against IS and Iran.
