Let's face reality. There are many other Republican senators and representatives that feel the man in the WH is unfit for the office just as Flake, Corker, and McCain have stated. They however will not go public as they lack the courage to do so. Their continuing silence makes them enablers in the degradation of the political environment.
It was a good speech and most of it was so very true. Now we will see if he backs it up or continues to tow the Trump line like he has done for the past 9 months.
Wait a second, you just gave a thumbs up affirmation in the Eminem thread about how he just feuds with blacks and women.
But within minutes you're posting to a thread talking about Flake and him being at odds.
Care to square that circle or maybe just claim that 15minutes is a long time to stay consistent on a topic....or remember what you posted?
We Zonies gotta be pretty proud of our Arizona senators who are leading the charge in speaking out against the disgrace that is our president. Two of the three voices of courage are from Arizona. I think the ranks will grow.
Their both now worthless, although one of 'em has been worthless for years now. Time for new blood, hopefully the next crew will actually DO what they promised to do but I'm not holding out too much hope.
Bye bye Flake, soooo sorry you didn't realize that your lack of action has consequences (can't get reelection $$$$$ from big donors) and instead of blaming everyone else maybe you should look in the mirror for your answers.
Hopefully McCain will be gone before Flake or soon thereafter!
Republican elites want to maintain their elite status, so as those anti Trumpers are replaced by populists and conservatives, they will fall into line and do what they were elected to do: make sure Trump's promises to his voters are fulfilled. Why pay someone if s/he isn't doing the job they were hired to do?
Good question for the DNC and Clinton machine don't you think? Given the new information that's just come out about them (paying) colluding with the Russians...
...
This is a lie and you know it.
Clinton campaign and DNC paid for opposition research. We've all known about this for close to a year. Research was paid for by a R candidate (probably Jeb Bush, but who knows?). When they quit paying for it, the Ds started paying for it.
There is not a shred of evidence that Clinton or the Ds were in cahoots with Putin to undermine the election.
Jeff Flake is not running for re-election because he was too busy sucking up to his Capitol Hill colleagues instead of the people in Arizona where he's losing by quite a bit. Trump has nothing to do with it. It's Flake trying to save face by dumping on the President.
Maybe we should check his donor list.
Guess what? By far his biggest donor is Club For Growth. Now you know why he's pro amnesty.
Exactly. The donors he needs to continue are reportedly NOT giving him checks. Glad to see he's seen the writing on the wall, sadly he's going out using the Clinton method of blaming everyone else and claiming some kind of moral high ground...

Trent Franks is a one issue rep who only keeps getting re-elected because he has an R next to his name
I doubt Republicans will nominate Ward, but if they do the seat goes Dem. I expect them to get McSally to run. She will win, but she is not a reliable Trumpie - though we don't know what she might be when she gets to the senate. She is generally conservative, maybe not as much as Flake. She represents a swing district, though, and so has dodged questions and obfuscated on many issues. Rs might lose her house seat if she runs for senate.
