Oct 24, 2017President Donald Trump and Sen. Bob Corker renewed their simmering feud on Tuesday morning, with the president writing in a tweet that Corker “couldn't get elected dog catcher” after the Tennessee Republican urged the White House to leave tax reform to Congress.
“Bob Corker, who helped President O give us the bad Iran Deal & couldn't get elected dog catcher in Tennessee, is now fighting Tax Cuts,” Trump wrote in the first of a series of tweets blasting the senator.
“Corker dropped out of the race in (Tennessee) when I refused to endorse him, and now is only negative on anything Trump. Look at his record!”
