According to the Washington Post’s Robert Costa, Sen. Bob Corker (R-TN) has taken his name out of consideration to serve as Trump’s veep. He was what we would call in the technical lingo the only normal pol currently being considered. Last night he introduced Trump at a speech in North Carolina, said what an awesome guy he was and then proceeded to watch him toast Saddam Hussein and accuse the Attorney General of the United States of accepting a bribe.
