Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) took a swing at President Trump in a Thursday tweet, after the president criticized his stance on the Iran nuclear deal.
Trump, using his favorite nickname for Schumer, insinuated that the senator was hypocritical for disagreeing with the president's decision to withdraw the U.S. from the Iran deal earlier this week. "Cryin' Chuck Schumer" voted against the deal in the first place, argued Trump.
