Bob Corker was the primary enabling moron to help the anti-intellectual Left from inside our perimeter back then...I hear Thomas Massie has signaled his intent to be today's enabling moron. I'm sure there will be others. Update #1 from same link: President Trump just eliminated Iran’s nuclear program with one …
