Nobody called anyone an ignorant slut: Republican Senator proclaims meeting with Trump a success

Sen. John Kennedy (R-LA) told reporters after the meeting that senators and the president had frank discussions about tax reform and did not engage in insulting one another — despite the fact that Trump and Sen. Corker are still in the midst of a heated Twitter feud.

“It was a very positive meeting,” Kennedy said, per BuzzFeed reporter Paul McLeod and Yahoo News reporter Liz Goodwin. “Nobody called anyone an ignorant slut.”

Corker on Tuesday said that Trump regularly fails to tell the truth about a wide range of topics, and also accused the president of being unwilling to act in a competent fashion.

Trump responded by saying that “Liddle’ Bob Corker” was “incompetent,” while once again falsely claiming that Corker was responsible for supporting the nuclear arms deal with Iran negotiated by former President Barack Obama.

republican values are so low-down degenerate. Deplorable.

Dan Ackroyd would call Jane Curtin, "Jane, you ignorant slut."

Given the choice of words, was this a subtle dig at Yahoo reporter Liz Goodwin because she was s women and stopped him to ask a question?
