President Trump fired another shot at retiring Tennessee Senator Bob Corker today:
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….
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) October 24, 2017
…Corker dropped out of the race in Tennesse when I refused to endorse him, and now is only negative on anything Trump. Look at his record!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) October 24, 2017
Isn’t it sad that lightweight Senator Bob Corker, who couldn’t get re-elected in the Great State of Tennessee, will now fight Tax Cuts plus!

Sen. Corker is the incompetent head of the Foreign Relations Committee, & look how poorly the U.S. has done. He doesn't have a clue as…..
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) October 24, 2017
…the entire World WAS laughing and taking advantage of us. People like liddle' Bob Corker have set the U.S. way back. Now we move forward!

And Corker fired back:
Same untruths from an utterly untruthful president. #AlertTheDaycareStaff

For the record, Corker voted against the Iran deal back in 2015.
Update: This is the appearance on the Today show that apparently prompted Trump’s tweet:

But wait, there’s more:
Senator Corker, on CNN after earlier Twitter fight with Trump: Won’t support Trump again; Trump has “lack of desire to be competent”

Corker on Trump: “Nothing that he said in his tweets today were truthful or accurate.” https://t.co/E2c4TiJ9vv

Corker on Trump: “I think world leaders are very aware that much of what he says is untrue.” https://t.co/9RWWc9EfFK

Much like John McCain, it would appear that Bob Corker is in “I don’t give a shit mode.” Too bad that more Republican Senators and Members of Congress don’t have the same courage.
Also, I have updated the original post to include a third tweet from Trump directed at Corker.
