Im glad you included Corker in that list..
I think it was on Judge Jeannine last night.. there was head shots of the GOP field ..24 of them...on the screen to the left of her as she spoke last night..
I noticed Corker among them but I couldn’t remember later who was the new face..
If we had closed primaries, Corker wouldn’t stand a chance..however without them Corker can run and make a good showing in our primaries..even be TN’s “pick”
and set himself up for 2020 as a “leader of the GOP”
The TN Republican Party is rooted in the eastern regions, where it has spent the last 150 years fossilizing into a political machine like the Dems have in a big city.
When the Civil War began, eastern TN had no use for the Confederacy and they aligned with the Union-Republicans.
