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...— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) October 8, 2017
..my endorsement). He also wanted to be Secretary of State, I said "NO THANKS." He is also largely responsible for the horrendous Iran Deal!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) October 8, 2017
...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!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) October 8, 2017
WNU Editor: A lot of inside "baseball" revealed by President Trump. Not surprising, Senator Corker is not amused that these facts are being exposed, and he has responded quickly ....
It's a shame the White House has become an adult day care center. Someone obviously missed their shift this morning.— Senator Bob Corker (@SenBobCorker) October 8, 2017
As to what is my take .... Senator Corker is not going to run in the next election. Too much of his past has caught up to him (see link here), and the sentiment among the Republican base (i.e. Trump's base) in Tennessee is that they want him gone. He read the tea leaves, and decided to bail out .... but I think he did not expect to be kicked out of the door in such a matter. As for President Trump .... he continues to make enemies within the Republican Party (but I do not think he cares).

Corker used procedural shenanigans to funnel Iran all that money. Also among the pack that sold us out to ISP's last Spring.
/it would be a bad career move for Corker to engage in a battle with Trump at this point.
I see nothing wrong with Corker's income.
I don't like his backsliding politics.
