Montana senator released damaging allegations about VA nominee
Trump tweets: His reputation has been shattered. Not fair, Tester!
Donald Trump has called for the resignation of Jon Tester, the Democratic senator who released details of allegations against Ronny Jackson, the White House doctor who withdrew his nomination to be secretary of veterans affairs.
Allegations made by Senator Jon Tester against Admiral/Doctor Ron Jackson are proving false, the president tweeted. 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.
Before playing golf in Virginia on Saturday morning, Trump added a shot aimed at voters in Montana, where Tester will run for a third term in November against an as yet undecided Republican. The GOP primary, on 5 June, will feature one candidate who has hired an aide who lied about the assault of a Guardian reporter by congressman Greg Gianforte in 2017.
The Senate majority whip, John Cornyn, said on Thursday Tester had poked the bear, inviting Trump to intervene in a state he won by 20 points in 2016. On Saturday morning Trump duly growled, writing: The great people of Montana will not stand for this kind of slander when talking of a great human being.

Hey sexual fucking predator, if you think this character should be in the VA ..................its real simple , why don't you renominate him and let him go before the Senate and testify.................you will not because you are a spineless hypocrite, and a traitor, that what is called due process, because this dude would have to meet his accusers and those that saw him operate, and you don't want to get egg on your face................but you don't know about due process, he back ed out and you backed out, because his accusers are more than likely telling the truth..................and John Testers has bigger balls than you do...............and was doing his job--------------------vetting..................
