It was also the fourth most-retweeted message by any member of Congress, according to an analysis of how federal lawmakers used social media over the past year.

Corker, a Tennessee Republican who chairs the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, fired off the message Oct. 8 after Trump attacked in him a Twitter tirade.
