Senator Corker Criticizes Trump's Speech
Twitter ^ | June 14, 2016 | Benjy Sarlin

This is all I have. This is a reporter covering the Trump campaign, and he just Tweeted this:

Sen Corker on Trump: "It wasn't the type of speech one would expect" from potential president. Says he's "discouraged" by the campaign.

A few minutes later he Tweeted:

Trump seems to be on his own today as Obama, Clinton, Reid all bash away. Sen Jeff Sessions only one to praise him today on hill.

The idiots still think the difference in the election will be based on the opinions of Obama, Hillary, and Harry Reid?

“The man is literally fighting his own party, although I thought Corker usually liked Trump. I’ve seen him defending him on TV. I don’t know what prompted this as I thought it was a good speech, and to say this on a day when Obama gets out there spewing his usual rhetoric? Not one Republican on Capital Hill defended Trump? This furthers my theory the establishment would rather he lose to continue business as usual politics.

Corker’s name was tossed about for VP, but I think Trump would be a fool not to pick Sessions. A more loyal supporter you won’t find. I like Hunter Jr. if he’s going with someone younger who would be the future of the party, but Sessions is a phenomenal pick.”

I live in TN and voted for Corker. Never again. RINO First Class.

From Twitter of another reporter covering Trump:

On same day that POTUS/HRC criticize Trump’s speech, - so do many GOP’ers: Corker, Ryan, Graham, Collins, Ayotte...sure I’m missing a bunch.

Also:

@Reince statement on POTUS presser doesn’t mention the merits of GOP nominee’s proposal to ban Musims from U.S.:

Also from a reporter covering Trump for New York Times:

Does anyone envision the WH agreeing to Intel briefings w Trump, which is tradition but not law, after today’s speech?

The families of those who died are most certainly discouraged at the lack of vetting these foreigners get.

Even Allen West is a good pick.

West loathes Trump.

Have you never heard him speak??? You’re in for a treat. If anyone ever needed the Eliza Doolittle/ My Fair Lady treatment it’s Corker!

I like Hunter Jr. if he's going with someone younger who would be the future of the party,

People keep pitching Duncan Hunter, Jr. for vice-president, but I believe he has some campaign fund issues that are going to be very difficult to clean up. It seems that he and various other members of his family were using campaign funds for personal expenses like oral surgery, utilities, home repairs, groceries, etc. He can probably win reelection in his district, but that's probably the limit for now. .

I heard Trump is going hard on this theme.

It's very simple. The leadership of both parties has been bought and paid for by interests that want unrestricted flow of illegal aliens and Muslims into America. They are traitors. It's that simple.

Corker would be a weak choice for VP and I don't think he was ever a serious possibility.

Gov. Rick Scott was interviewed by Brian Kilmeade this morning--he complained about the refusal of the Obama administration to share information they have on immigrants (because that would violate their "privacy"). He sounded like he might be a good pick for VP, but I don't know if he has some weaknesses or drawbacks. He is a veteran.

I am glad. I never wanted Corker as VP in the first place. Good to find out where his loyalties are. Politicians like him are the reason 49 people are dead.
