Earlier this morning, President Donald J. Trump lambasted Republican Senator Bob Corker of Tennessee on Twitter. Sen. Corker’s response, however, was just as bitingly critical of the commander in chief.
President Trump started the twitter feud this morning by saying that the soon-to-be retired Senator was largely responsible for the “horrendous Iran Deal,” begged the President for his endorsement, and thought that Corker would be a negative voice in his administration, which is why he was never considered for Secretary of state.
Senator Bob Corker "begged" me to endorse him for re-election in Tennessee. I said "NO" and he dropped out (said he could not win without...— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) October 8, 2017
..my endorsement). He also wanted to be Secretary of State, I said "NO THANKS." He is also largely responsible for the horrendous Iran Deal!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) October 8, 2017
...Hence, I would fully expect Corker to be a negative voice and stand in the way of our great agenda. Didn't have the guts to run!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) October 8, 2017
In response, the senior senator from the Volunteer State said that White House has become a “adult day care center.”
It's a shame the White House has become an adult day care center. Someone obviously missed their shift this morning.— Senator Bob Corker (@SenBobCorker) October 8, 2017
Corker has often been critical about President Trump, but his comments this week that Secretary of Defense James “Mad Dog” Mattis, Secretary of State Rex Tillerson, and Chief of Staff John Kelly are keeping America and the world form chaos seemed to spark the President's comments today.
"I think Secretary Tillerson, Secretary Mattis, and Chief of Staff Kelly are those people that help separate our country from chaos, and I support them very much.”
A source close to Sen. Corker’s office accused the President of lying, according to the Washington Examiner.
"All claims made in the president's tweets are false," the source said. "The president called the senator early last week and asked him to reconsider his decision not to seek reelection and reaffirmed that he would have endorsed him, as he has said many times."
This feud between a sitting GOP president and senator comes just days after Vice President Mike Pence's chief of staff told donors to "purge" Anti-Trump Republicans from Capitol Hill.
“Just imagine the possibilities of what can happen if our entire party unifies behind him? If — and this sounds crass — we can purge the handful of people who continue to work to defeat him,” Nick Ayers said, according to POLITICO.
“I’m not speaking on behalf of the president or vice president when I say this,” Ayers continued But if I were you, I would not only stop donating, I would form a coalition of all the other major donors, and just say two things. We’re definitely not giving to you, No. 1. And No. 2, if you don’t have this done by Dec. 31, we’re going out, we’re recruiting opponents, we’re maxing out to their campaigns, and we’re funding super PACs to defeat all of you.”
So far, the White House has not responded to the insults hurled by Sen. Corker.
Corker is a corrupt TN Swamp Rat.
Corker is a traitor for the Iran “treaty” and a Ditch enabler.
Isnt Corker under investigation by the Senate?
Another GOPe sh**head.
Trump’s gonna Trump.
Hopefully Corker will not spend his last few months in the Senate stabbing his constituents in the back like McCain is doing.
.
Then the Senate must be the Geriatric Short Bus!
.
Yeah, lets go back to when tens of millions entered the country illegally, at will, during war time.
Lets return to looting the tax payers and sending the country trillions in debt...
Lets go back to more 10 year long compassionate wars costing trillions...
And lets go back to the time when hundreds of thousands of jobs and entire American industries moved off shore.
And lets continue to bring in the entire 3rd world into America.
Good thinking Corker.

I can’t wait until he is replaced by my rep, who is a true conservative and supporter of President Trump
Honestly, I have no idea.
He's ALREADY back-stabbing, not only his constituents but his President and his country.
He's a midget not only in height, but in mentality...and his Napoleon Complex has taken hold of him because of what he fears are his final days of being a "somebody" in a high political position.

With children like Corker, Ryan, McConnell, McCain, and Snow, the White House has become an adult day care center of sorts, just not the way Corker saw it.
Tantrums and always “me first before country” have left these people and others of no use to anyone, except the enemies of our nation.
Corker should step down now.
He’s simply an adversary to the movement to right the ship of state.
November 2016
Tennessee
Trump=>60%
ILLary=>34%
Big mistake, Corker.
[White House of Being an “Adult Day Care Center”]
Hey Corker, when you and your buddy Obama dreamt up a way to help Iran, the White House was an “Adult Gay Care Center”.
We can play this game, too. Oh, BTW, that’s the truth. You may have read about it sometime.
Of course he will. You can now add him as a no vote on anything Trump wants. It might feel good to dis Corker, but Trump needs his vote worse than a feel good dis. But whatever...
Why? Please explain. He is not running for reelection, so he has nothing to lose.
And that RINO governor is not running for reelection either.
Corker is a used adult diaper.
How short is Corker?
5’2”?
