President Trump reignited his feud with Sen. Bob Corker (R-TN) Tuesday morning. (Guess where.)
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....

...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!

Corker accused the Trump administration earlier this month of being akin to an "adult day care center." On "Good Morning America" Tuesday morning, he defended those remarks.
"I don’t make comments I haven’t thought about," he said.
The senator continued to hammer Trump on what he perceives as an erratic foreign policy.
“When you look at the fact that we've got this issue in North Korea and the president continues to kneecap his diplomatic representative, the secretary of state, and really move him away from successful diplomatic negotiations with China, which is key to this, you're taking us on a path to combat,” Corker told "Good Morning America" today.
It's no wonder Corker is the star of Trump's latest Twitter rant.
One of Trump's lines of attack against the senator is that he is partly responsible for the Iranian nuclear deal. PolitiFact rated that false.
Now, he's accusing Corker of working against his tax cut plan.
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!
