President Donald Trump continued to lash out against Senator Jon Tester for the Montana Democrat’s role in ending the nomination of White House physician Ronny Jackson to be Secretary of Veterans Affairs.

Jackson on Thursday withdrew from consideration to run the sprawling Veterans Affairs department a day after Tester released a document with a long list of alleged transgressions.
