This 🔥 tweet came shortly after several others from Trump, in which he aired his own grievances with Sen. Corker, who announced his looming retirement last week.

All this Twitter back-and-forth came days after Sen. Corker criticized Trump's behavior.
"I think Secretary Tillerson, Secretary Mattis, and Chief of Staff Kelly are those people that separate our country from chaos," Sen. Corker told reporters at Capitol Hill Wednesday, referring to the Secretary of State, Secretary of Defense, and White House Chief of Staff, respectively.
