Trump Tweeted...“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),” Trump tweeted. “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!”
-- Corker, who has felt liberated since announcing his retirement last month, gleefully fired back. His office quickly went on the record to insist that Trump had, in fact, promised to endorse him, urged him not to retire and just last week asked him to reconsider his decision. The 65-year-old then tweeted this:
It's a shame the White House has become an adult day care center. Someone obviously missed their shift this morning.

Corker later went on to do an interview in which he warned that every Republican senator essentially agrees with him, and that they fear our reckless president could inadvertantly start World War III.
Again, this is a Republican senator saying these things. Nothing to worry about here.
