The Reader Center is a newsroom initiative that is helping The Times build deeper ties with our audience.

President Trump claimed on Twitter today that The Times “set Liddle’ Bob Corker up by recording his conversation.”

Mr. Trump was referring to our interview Sunday with Mr. Corker, the Tennessee Republican and chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, in which he said Mr. Trump was recklessly tempting “World War III,” treating the presidency “like he’s doing ‘The Apprentice’ or something” and required constant supervision by his own staff.
