The bitter sentiment between President Trump and soon-to-be-former Senator Bob Corker was launched into the public eye this morning.
In a series of early morning tweets, President Trump lashed out at the Tennessee Republican, exposing some 'inside-the-beltway' scoop...
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 my endorsement).
He also wanted to be Secretary of State, I said "NO THANKS." He is also largely responsible for the horrendous Iran Deal!
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!

Senator Corker did not take kindly to these 'facts' being exposed and responded very directly...
“It's a shame the White House has become an adult day care center,” Corker said.
“Someone obviously missed their shift this morning.”

The latter part of the tweet seems like a clear shot across the bow at Chief of Staff Kelly, who many have opined is responsible for 'managing' Trump's outbursts.
We suspect this feud is far from over.
