Descending into yet another Twitter rant Tuesday morning, President Donald Trump responded to Sen. Bob Corker’s criticism with another round of insults, saying that the twice-elected senator and former Chattanooga mayor “couldn’t get elected dog catcher.”
Sen. Corker, who is retiring after his second U.S. Senate term ends next year, stood by his criticism of the president’s maturity and called into question Trump’s foreign policy.
Bob Corker, who helped President O give us the bad Iran Deal & couldn't get elected dog catcher in Tennessee, is now fighting Tax Cuts….

Twitter users felt compelled to respond to Trump’s insults:
You have no grasp on human interaction. You can't just insult your way to the top, and you can't insult people into agreeing with you. The opposite is what occurs.

Couldn't get elected dog catcher? He was elected Senator twice and has a 52% approval rating….far higher than yours.
