2 Jun: CNN: Clare Foran: Bob Corker says GOP senators are working on plan to ‘push back’ on Trump policy
Sen. Bob Corker said Saturday that he is working with other Senate Republicans on an effort to “push back” on President Donald Trump’s use of authority “in ways never intended and that are damaging to our country and our allies.”...
One, a Wall Street Journal opinion piece, argued the tariffs will harm the US economy and American foreign policy. The other, a Washington Post story, mentioned an administration plan to keep coal and nuclear power plants from closing .

In response to the articles, Corker wrote in a tweet, “These two stories feel like something I could have read in a local Caracas newspaper last week, not in America. Venezuela, here WE come!” ...

The senator said in a follow-up tweet, “I am working with like-minded Republican senators on ways to push back on the president using authorities in ways never intended and that are damaging to our country and our allies. Will Democrats join us?”

They were fine with Obama ruling by executive orders for 8 years with nary a whimper. The truth is the GOP establishment corporate whores were fine with Obama as president.
