President Donald Trump launched into a bitter Twitter tirade on Saturday morning against Montana Democratic Senator Jon Tester for paving the way for VA nominee Ronny Jackson to drop out of the running to head the troubled agency.
Writing on Twitter, Trump whined, "Allegations made by Senator Jon Tester against Admiral/Doctor Ron Jackson are proving false. The Secret Service is unable to confirm (in fact they deny) any of the phony Democrat charges which have absolutely devastated the wonderful Jackson family. Tester should resign."
He then added, "The great people of Montana will not stand for this kind of slander when talking of a great human being. Admiral Jackson is the kind of man that those in Montana would most respect and admire, and now, for no reason whatsoever, his reputation has been shattered. Not fair, Tester!"
