Another Republican Runs for the Hills
Tennessee's Lamar Alexander won't run for re-election in 2020.
Kind of sad, actually.
Now instead of having two reasonable conservatives in the Senate (Alexander and Bob Corker) who aren't afraid of being critical of Trump (publicly or privately) and working with Democrats on occasion, that state instead will have two VERY conservative firebrands (Marsha Blackburn and perhaps Stephen Fincher).
