Larry Crim: Oppose President Obama's disastrous Iran Deal

Serving our nation requires a dedication to uphold the Constitution and protect the American People for whom it was adopted. When the time came to address the provisions of The Constitution at the Tea Party Forum in Paris, TN Larry Crim for U.S. Senate was present. Corker was absent. When it came time to invoke the Treaty Clause of the Constitution, Corker was absent to uphold the Constitution, but present to enable President Obama's Iran Deal. Larry Crim spoke out in 2015 that Corker had undermined the Treaty Clause and bargained away the power of the Senate under The Constitution.

In 2016 Larry Crim spoke against Corker 's bid to be considered for Secretary of State because Corker, the Enabler-In-Chief of the Iran Deal--who is fighting to continue it--is not a match for President Trump who rightfully called it a "disaster" and vowed to "dismantle the disastrous Iran Deal".

Bob Corker: Countries must pony up for NATO; alliance is important

With NATO, there is an issue there. And we have countries that we've had a relationship with for a long time that are not contributing the amount that they're supposed to contribute to NATO. Madeleine Albright has been before our committee complaining about it. I complain about it every year. And finally, there's a president that's making a big deal out of that. I actually think that's a healthy thing, as long as we continue to understand the strong importance of the NATO alliance, and what it means to our own security. What it means to the world's security.
