Corker Says Trump's Threats Could Put The Nation 'On The Path To World War III'
This is the Republican Chairman of the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations basically saying Trump is a loose canon pushing the US towards a possibly nuclear WWIII! Extraordinary doesn't even begin to describe this turn of events. Corker also said this morning that behind closed doors, most Republican Senators agree with him. Trump is so divisive and corrosive that his own party is approaching civil war. Trumps healthcare promises failed miserably and there is a good possibility that Trumps tax reforms will meet the same fate. It's refreshing to see a senior Senator with a GOP lapel pin standing up to the Twitter bully. That said, Corker pulls back the curtain on a sobering state of affairs, saying that a moderate Cabinet level faction withing the White House is a thin line standing between sanity and WWIII.
Show of hands: Who didn't worry about this before the election? I worried about this when he was talking to Chris Matthews before the election, saying that he didn't understand why we would have nukes and not use them. He couldn't even tell Matthews that he wouldn't use them on Europe.
And those are real words, folks. Straight from the horse's ass - not fake news, like some of you would like to believe.
