Trump attacks Corker in Friday tweet: 'Tennessee not happy'

President Trump fired back at criticisms from Tennessee Sen. Bob Corker, a fellow Republican, on his Twitter account Friday morning.

But while Huckabee Sanders demurred, Trump did not.

Strange statement by Bob Corker considering that he is constantly asking me whether or not he should run again in '18. Tennessee not happy!
5:25 AM - 25 Aug 2017


Corker said last week he fears that the nation will be in peril unless Trump makes radical changes at the White House.

Corker may have his faults, and he has many, but I applaud him for taking a stand against PINO!

Another Tennessee lawmaker I'm proud of.

Rep. Cohen on Aug. 8, then this statement from Sen. Coker on Aug. 18. There's a crack in the wall! But most other Tenn Lawmakers are too dumb to be there...yet.
