    Found it interesting the recent polling that found only 58 percent of Fox News viewers approve of Trump - down from 90 in March.

    So McCain doc says he's staying in Arizona until January. They really better have the votes lined up or it will be another last minute shitshow

    After Corker's $10 million bribe, they have the votes.

    Looks like #CorkerKickback has started to trend.

    But while Corker denied he knew anything about the provision or how it would benefit him personally, Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX), the majority whip in the Senate, on Sunday said its inclusion was specifically part of an effort to "cobble together the votes" needed "to get this bill passed."

    Over at Vox, Emily Stewart reports that Cornyn does not have "a good answer on tax bill loophole that means millions for Corker and Trump."

    I just wonder how many Senators are on the fence after seeing that and want to know what's in it for them -- especially in the wake of the McCain news

    Oh, believe me, each and every one of them knows what's in it for them down to two places right of the decimal point.

    Neutral, what would you have done tonight if Gee didn't post about Corker?

    They have the votes. This thing stinks to high heaven, but it's going to pass.

    Really doesn't look good for McCain. Unable to get back to Washington, and facing a really aggressive cancer. You hope for the best, but he likely doesn't have much time left.

    This is quite something. Still working my way through it.
