Sen. Bob Corker (R-Tenn.) lambasted the budgetary process ahead of a key vote Thursday, calling the Senate budget a hoax and saying that he would dismantle the Senate Budget Committee.

“The only thing about this that matters is preparation for the tax reform,” said Corker, who is retiring at the end of the Congress. "Other than that, these amendment votes, everything about this is a hoax. A hoax. It has no impact on anything whatsoever.

“If I were chairman of the budget committee, I would dismantle it. I would move to end it immediately in its current form," Corker said.

"Unless we create a real budget process, which this is not, our country’s fiscal situation will continue to go down the tube, and we have no mechanism to control real spending, 70 percent of which is mandatory, that’s not even covered by this,” he continued.
