Relations between Donald Trump and retiring Republican senator Bob Corker have been somewhat frosty of late, a development likely related to the Tennessee legislator's recent interview in which he described the president as an unstable lunatic whose patented combination of recklessness and instability could set the nation on a path to World War III. This administration, however, is nothing if not a forgiving lot, and on Tuesday morning, White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee magnanimously proposed a way forward. From Politico:
“You know, sadly, Senator Corker hasn’t called me, but if he’d like to visit, I’d be happy to talk to him and certainly see if we could get him back on board and do, frankly, what the people of Tennessee elected him to do,” Sanders said. “That’s come here, help do things that protect our country, protect our citizens and do a lot of the things that they campaigned on, whether it’s repeal and replace, tax reform.”
And she offered one bit of advice: “Hopefully, he’ll get out of the name calling and get back to work here pretty soon,” she said.
Ah yes, hopefully Senator Corker will end his nasty, unproductive habit of name-calling so that Donald Trump and Mitch McConnell and company can get back to work. It is encouraging to see Sanders embracing her role as the proverbial voice of reason, urging both sides to find common ground for the good of the country. In an unrelated story, here are some randomly-selected messages that Sanders' boss has disseminated into the world of late.
