Led by a world famous chef. Nightly news begins now. Good evening. It was startling because it happened so publicly. An extraordinary squabble between two prominent republicans. It started when President Trump this morning took aim on twitter at the powerful republican chairman of the Senate Foreign relations committee. Senator bob corker. Who cently announced he would not run for reelection. The president said corker had begged for his endorsement and when mr. Trump said no, the senator bowed out of the race. The Senators Office said the con vversation didnt go that w at all and it got even nastier from there. Peter alexander has the details. Tonight, piercing criticism of the president by a fellow republican. Senator corker tweeting its a shame the white house has become an adult day care center. Those word, retaliation for President Trumps latest twitter tirade. Attacki ining corker, obstructi his agenda and a coward who didnt have the guts to run for reelection. I think it would be fun to work with him especially since hes announced hes not run ini for reelection because it unleashes thoim say whatever he wants to say. Corker just days ago taking this apparent swipe at the president s competence. I think secretary tillerson, secretary mattis and chief of staff kelly are those people that help separate our country from chaos. Among the most urgent threats, north korea. Kim jongun today touting his countrys arsonal, hours after President Trump warned only one thing will work with the rogue regime. Whats the one thing that will work . Well figure that out soon. The president making sure national security, not health care, is his top priority. I want to focus on north korea, iran, on other things. I dont want to focus on fixing somebodys back. Or their knee or something. How did you do . President trump also dismissing criticism of his response to the hurricane in puerto rico. Defending throwing paper towels to a crowd at a church. They had these people soft towels. They said throw them to me, mr. President. So im doing some of the so, the next day, they said, oh, it was so disrespectful to the people. It was just a made up thing. As if for President Trumps feud with senator corker, it could have dire implications for his agenda. The white house needs corkers support on tax reform, on the future of the Iran Nuclear Deal and potentially on a new secretary of state if Rex Tillerson leaves or is let go. Kate. Peter alexander, thank you. And another devicive issue involve iing the Trump Administration played out today. This one at the colts 49ers game in indianapolis. Mike pence walked out of the game after more than a dozen player frs ts from the 49ers kn for the national anthem. Vice president mike pence greeted fans in indianapolis. The colts facing off against the 49ers. When the anthem played, more than a dozen players took a knee. What so proudly we hailed pence stood with his hand over his heart and left as soon as the star spangled banner ended. Makes no sense to me. It is ridiculous what he did. Just doesnt make sense. He doesnt have any reason to do that. The Vice President tweeted moments later, i will not dignify any event that disrespects our soldiers, flag or national anthem. The protest, a devicive issue for millions of americans. Have created political momentum for the Trump Administration. Which has been using the controversy to woo donors for weeks. A question for some, whether todays walkout was planned. The president afterward tweeting i asked vp pence to leave stadium if any players kneeled. I think that sending the Vice President to the game was a preplanned stunt, but i think americans dont like stunts. Pences next stop, a fundraiser in california. Morgan radford, nbc news, new york.
