Discussion: Corker Says He'll Support Final Tax Overhaul Bill Despite Initial Opposition

Note that Corker does not inlude professional economists including those at CBO in the “many conversations” he claims to have had: He doesn’t want evidence and competent analysis any more than any of his colleagues; there are no, repeat no ‘moderate Republicans’ full stop.

If he had talked to someone genuinely competent* to comment on the subject he would have been told there is no evidence that tax cuts improve business productivity or competitiveness and his statement that this wretched excuse of a bill is a “once-in-a-generation opportunity to make U.S. businesses domestically more productive and internationally more competitive” is simply bullshit; just another talking point, bereft of real content.

*like a Nobel Prize winner in international trade theory

Well, Bob. It must be nice to be able to make "a bet on our country’s enterprising spirit, and that is a bet I am willing to make” when you are using everyone else’s money. Especially when that bet will automatically enrich your already wealthy ass no matter what it does to the country and its citizens.
This is MY Senator, folks! He’s just a good as my other GOP Senator, the fucking “moderate” Mr. Lamar Alexander. I wish I could be given the opportunity to “moderately” kick these media-labeled “moderates” in their “moderately” raisin-sized balls. Oh, and if the Secret Service is watching, come and get me, fuckers. At least in prison I can get my food and healthcare paid for. And I also posed for a picture with a phony severed head of Donald Trump, just like Kathy Griffin, who is beginning to look more like a combination of Joan of Arc and Eleanor Roosevelt with every passing day.
Trump and the GOP are lucky they aren’t living in France during the late 18th Century. They would be in tumbrels and wheeled to the guillotines in the public square. And yes, I hope they all die horrible, painful deaths. After all, I only think people should get what they absolutely deserve, kind of like the GOP feelings toward the American public in this legislative atrocity they are gleefully voting for.

I want to shrink the Republican Party to a size so small I can drown it in a thimble full of water. And I’ll find a way to squeeze Grover in there, too.

In the end, Corker is as corrupt and crooked as the rest of them - the definition of a Republican lawmaker - liar, crooked, corrupt, will do whatever to get money for themselves.
The Republican party needs to collapse - these lawmakers are that corrupt - every single one of them.

I know this is supposed to be about Bob Corker, but since all of these GOP pricks are heartless, bloodthirsty motherfuckers, I may as well scream about the one who deserves to finally be called out no matter what kind of suffering he is going through, because I sure as hell never saw him try to help anyone who was suffering with any of the legislative achievements he ever supported.
Is it OK now if I don’t have any sympathy for that motherfucker John McCain? Can I now save any sympathy for the people who suffer from the same kind of ailment he has and can’t even afford to get a fucking Tylenol to alleviate a little of the pain because they don’t have any healthcare and won’t be able to get any because of John McCain and the rest of these wife-beating, puppy-fucking, baby-eating, craven GOP motherfuckers taking it away? Can the media finally admit that after the S & L scandal of the 1980s, McCain shouldn’t have even been able to get a job pumping ethyl at a Sunoco station in Flagstaff?
To hell with McCain and Cochrane and Mo Brooks and all the rest. I have about as much sympathy for them, no matter what their infirmities are, as I do for a serial rapist who thinks his crimes should be excused because he sends a dozen roses and a box of chocolates to his grandmother every year on her birthday.

Rubio and Corker are backing the bill as a prelude to announcing their 2020 campaigns for president. They don’t see Trump being around to run for reelection, and they don’t think Pence is much of a threat.

Classic. He can prove he didn’t change his mind because it put money in his pocket, because he hasn’t even read it.
