**WARNING** this article may scare the shit out of you!!!!WASHINGTON 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 hes doing The Apprentice or something.
He concerns me, Mr. Corker added. He would have to concern anyone who cares about our nation.
Mr. Corkers 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.

It seems the majority of Republicans are STILL more interested in trying to ram through their horrific agenda than in safeguarding our country and the world, for that matter. Trump's mental instability and reckless behavior pose an extreme threat to humanity.
