White House hammers GOP senator, escalating feud
Source: MSN/The Hill
The White House on Tuesday escalated President Trump's feud with Sen. Bob Corker (R-Tenn.), saying the senator was partially responsible for the Iran nuclear deal.
"Senator Corker worked with Nancy Pelosi and the Obama administration to pave the way for that and rolled out the red carpet for the Iran deal," White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said at a briefing.
Corker's office said the claim is "not true" and that the Tennessee Republican opposed the Iran deal and worked with lawmakers to craft a bill ensuring Congress could review the deal, against the Obama White House's wishes.

It appeared that Sanders came ready to criticize Corker at Tuesday's briefing, repeatedly hammering the retiring senator, who is not seeking reelection in 2018.

While it is somewhat satisfying to watch Trump hammering on Republicans, it also just goes to show just how vindictive and impulsive Trump is, and how he has made the Presidency all about satisfying his ego.

The reporters are saying, when they're asked 'off the record', almost all of them say that BLOTUS is fucking nuts and out of control.

(23,065 posts)Yes, drumpf is a child emotionally so this is about his ego, partially. Think most of it is $$$$$$. He's profiting every day from foreign countries, most of which are not democratic. He's profiting from his SS, making them pay full rate to protect him and laughing at us all the while. This is about making $ for him and what Russia can do for him. IMO, the idiot twerp actually believes they will enrich him, but they just want to use him then out him to further destroy us. Of course, he's also used Saudi Arabia and China to profit personally and quite a bit.
