Maybe a lobbying job that pays far more than his Senate job?

As the horrible, criminal, felonious Tom Delay said, “The GOP wants to drown the government in the bathtub”. The worthless GOP is simply starving the government to death, and as government gets less effective due to less operating revenue, the GOP will point and say, “See, we told you government is ineffective”. What totally despicable pricks.

It wasn’t Tom Delay who said that about drowning the government in a bathtub, it was Grover Norquist, and the quote was more like “I want us to shrink government to a size so small we could drown it in a bathtub.”
As for Corker, leadership probably told him he didn’t have a “free vote” this time because they’re not sure Cochran and McCain will be back in time.

Corker and Rubio got the deals they wanted. Will similar deals be made when they finally get around to dealing with the thing in the White House? Or will they just act like nothing is happening? I’m beginning to think that this Tax Bill won’t matter in the long run because the GOP will not prevent what is essentially a soft coup from going on until The Constitution is just a quaint historical document and nothing more, and we are governed by Putin through Trump. I will stop feeling this way if I see just one GOP senator step up and show substantial, not just verbal, opposition to what’s going on. Otherwise, I have no faith at all that they will do ANYTHING to stop him, even if Mueller can prove complete and overwhelming criminal wrongdoing.

does " enterprising spirit " mean legislatively stealing from the actual producers
of wealth and sending it to those who started the thievery in the first place ?

Why? So much for a patriot is just another Republican who bows to the whims of corporate America and the wealthy. Or he seeking a job with a corporation after he leaves office . Didn’t he just resign a coward.
Exit stage right, Snagglepussy. you are a real hard ass right up to the final vote Then you fold like a Robert Hall suit.
Just wanted some attention?
Just as much of a liar, crook, con, corrupt as the rest of the Republican lawmakers.
He just wanted the spotlight for a while longer - gawd, they are all just as bad, corrupt as Trump. Every one of them!
How much money is he getting for his vote?
Well, we knew it that you will all follow suit and follow the dear leader no matter how much you hate him. Party before country.
As predicted, they all roll over. No surprise.
So, I posted this 22 hours ago…
Welp. Quite a dramatic shift in the last 22 hours it seems. 
I’m glad I have kept breathing

In other words, “All my post Senate rightwing welfare job offers were drying up.”
If you want live like a Republican vote Democrat. If you want to live like a Democrat, vote Republican.

Laurence O’Donnell just suggested that Corker (Foreign Relations Committee) may be hoping to get Secretary of State if Tillerson is booted. That’s the best explanation I’ve heard for Corker’s sudden change on this bill.
