The tensions between US President Donald Trump and Tennessee Senator Bob Corker are heating up.

Rain chirping that reciprocated the line of time in Twitter account two figures who used to be friends and political allies.

In the latest Twitter chirp, as reported by the New York Times on Wednesday (10/11/2017), Trump mocks Corker's height.

"The falling New York Times has caught the 'short' Corker by recording an interview with him," Trump chirps.

This Trump sentence refers to an interview between the US daily and Corker before.

These reproaches continue to characterize Trump who is fond of embarrassing political opponents, with a series of degrading epithets.

Prior to this, Trump had labeled Florida Senator Marco Rubio a "small" figure.

Trump also mentioned his former opponent in a recent presidential election, Hillary Clinton, called a disgusting corrupt woman.

Now, Trump calls Corker a short man.

This tension is in stark contrast, especially considering that Trump once considered the 65-year-old senator to occupy the position of the foreign minister.

Trump even glanced at Corker as his vice presidential candidate.

However, Trump finally did not choose senator with 173 centimeter height to occupy these positions.

Trump and Corker disputes began to happen since last weekend.

In his chirp, Trump stated, Sen Cork Foreign Relations Committee Chairman, Bob Corker, was a "negative voice" and "partly responsible for Iran's bad nuclear deal".

Corker retaliated by saying, The White House under Donald Trump has become an "adult kindergarten".

The split of Trump and Corker relations began in August when the senator criticized Trump's response to clashes between white supremacists and antifascist demonstrators in Charlottesville, Virginia.

At that time, Corker assess Trump still not able to demonstrate the competence to perform the duties as President with success.

In an interview with the New York Times, Corker publicly said the Trump government had the potential to trigger the outbreak of World War III.

"I am very anxious. He worries all who care about this country, "Corker sighed.
