(58,724 posts)I am saying that the Democrat who challenges the seat will lose and it won't be close.
In 2016, Trump carried the state over Hillary by 26 points.
In 2012, Romney carried the state over Obama by 20 points.
This is the reality.

End result will be a far RW loon getting Corker's seat. Trump will have replaced him with someone who will do his bidding and kiss his ass.
Win for Trump.

not every republican supports trump or his insanity
or his puppets

This isn't about elevating Corker. It's about celebrating the public fighting between Republicans. We need more and more of this.

(16,104 posts)on those occasions when a Republican says something I can wholeheartedly agree with, I'm going to let them have it!
Corker also helped get the Iran nuclear agreement through, so he went against the core of his party on that, too.
