Late Night Laughs: Around the White House

-

President Trump has been feuding with a couple of senators from his own party — Jeff Flake of Arizona and Bob Corker of Tennessee are on his list right now. The president decided to tweet about this today. He said there are NO problems in the GOP; in fact, they love him so much they cannot sit down when he walks in a room, “multiple standing ovations.” Who wants to be the one who tells him that people are required to stand when the president enters the room? That’s not an accomplish­ment. That’s like saying, “Every time I walk into a Starbucks, guy behind the counter asks me if I want coffee.” — Jimmy Kimmel

President Trump and Republican Sen. Bob Corker have now re-ignited their feud. In an interview this morning, Corker slammed Trump and his foreign policy. President Trump, of course, responded on Twitter. In a series of tweets, Trump called Corker a “lightweigh­t,” he called him “incompeten­t,” and he mocked his height by once again calling him “Liddle Bob Corker.” So, looks like the first lady’s anti-bullying initiative still has a ways to go. — James Corden

At one point, Corker told reporters that Trump’s legacy will be “the debasement of our nation.” Yeah, debasement. As in, when Trump starts a war, I’ll be hiding in de basement. — James Corden

Then Trump responded by tweeting that Corker couldn’t get elected dog catcher in Tennessee. For the record, Corker is a sitting senator from Tennessee. He got elected twice. Before that, Corker was elected mayor of Chattanoog­a, Tennessee. So, Mr. President, you’re right. He couldn’t get elected dog catcher, because he’s too busy getting elected to every other job in that state. — James Corden
