Firing back at President Trump this Sunday, Senator Bob Corker (R-TN) suggested that the White House is housing a big baby.
Taking to Twitter, Corker responded to a series of tweets from Trump where he claimed that Corker is retiring from the Senate because he “begged” Trump for an endorsement which Trump refused.
In one tweeted, Trump chided Corker, saying he “didn’t have the guts” to run again.
“It’s a shame the White House has become an adult day care center. Someone obviously missed their shift this morning,” Corker tweeted.
Trump’s tweet storm attacking Corker started early Sunday morning, where he accused Corker of groveling before him:
“Senator Bob Corker “begged” me to endorse him for re-election in Tennessee,” Trump tweeted. “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!”

..my endorsement). He also wanted to be Secretary of State, I said "NO THANKS." He is also largely responsible for the horrendous Iran Deal!

Trump then accused Corker of standing in the way of the Republican “agenda.”
…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, the chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations committee, announced in September he wouldn’t seek re-election in 2018, becoming the first senator to do so. He has also been a vocal critic of Trump. This Thursday, Corker suggested to reporters that Gens. James Mattis and John Kelly, along with Secretary of State Rex Tillerson, are the only ones helping to “separate our country from chaos” in the era of Trump.
“[Mattis, Kelly and Tillerson] work very well together to make sure the policies we put forth around the world are sound and coherent,” Corker said. “There are other people within the administration that don’t. I hope they stay because they’re valuable to the national security of our nation.”
