In an interview with CNN, Blunt said, “Both these people have important work to do. I’m supportive of both of them. I’d like to see it stop.” He added that Trump and Corker should focus on doing their job “instead of talking about each other.”
Trump intensifies attack on Corker
Despite the concerns of Republicans, Trump intensified his attack on Corker in another post on Twitter today.
The President tweeted, “The Failing @nytimes set Liddle’ Bob Corker up by recording his conversation. Was made to sound a fool, and that’s what I am dealing with!”
During the interview with the New York Times, Corker said Trump is treating the presidency like a “reality show” and his reckless threats could put the U.S. “on the path to World War III.”
Corker made his comments after the President claimed on Sunday that he “begged” for his endorsement but declined. Trump also stated that the senator “didn’t have the guts to run” and “largely responsible for the Iran deal.”
The retiring senator fired back at Trump by saying the White House has” became an adult day care center” and “someone obviously missed their shift.” His statement suggested that the President needs constant supervision.
