Mr. Trump's blast comes after Senator Corker released a statement last week about President Trump's handling of the Charlottesville protests.

Corker told Chattanooga media outlets he thinks there must be "radical changes" within the White House and claimed the president "has not demonstrated he understands the character of this nation."

The senator declined to detail what he meant by "radical changes."
