Republican senator who is critical of Trump keeps in touch with Obama
Dennis Michael Lynch ^ | 3/4/18 | DML News

In a Saturday interview on “The Axe Files” with host David Axelrod, Sen. Jeff Flake, R.-R.-Ariz. said he has remained in touch with former President Barack Obama, and claimed that the Republican party is in a “bad place.”

Flake acknowledged that he still speaks with Obama, who recently called Flake to see how he was faring following his announcement that he would not seek reelection.

The Hill reported, During that speech, Flake heavily criticized President Trump and said he would “no longer be complicit or silent” while the president continues his “reckless, outrageous and undignified” behavior.

On Saturday, Flake complimented Obama for reaching out to him just before he left the White House. “The last night he was in the White House, the day before inauguration he called just to say that he enjoyed working with me,” Flake said. “And I certainly said the same. He didn’t have to do that. It was very nice.”

During his interview with the former Obama adviser, Flake said the Trump cabinet meetings are “painful” to watch and said that the Republican party is currently in a “bad place.”

“There’s not much place for a Republican like me in a party like this right now,” Flake said.

Against Kelli Ward.

The AZ GOP is using Joe Arpaio’s ego to sneak McSally through the primary.
They want to keep two amnesty Senators.

And that's a good thing.

I am really upset with Arpaio's running, I did not think he could be used.

My guess is they had some people whisper sweet nothings in Joe’s ear that he was needed in the primary.
He may or may not know he is needed to get McSallycain elected as Amnesty Senator.

flake is one of the great names. We grade a great name on 1 to 10. The closer you are to the real name , the higher the score, “ FLAKE “ is a 10. He is truly mentally ill and needs his guns confiscated.

The Senate is now a 100 worthless idiots. The Founders could not come close to envisioning the day in which the government they founded would become this. It’s disgusting. It’s time to clean house/reboot/reset and start new but that’s only in one’s dreams and the Revolutionary War may have been the last great chance to have the greatest Republic on the planet. Another civil war is not the answer but our government, left and globalists are tempting fate and fanning flames.

Flake decided to not run again when his big previous financial supporters let him know they could not/ would not back his re-election. Coupled with polls showing he had no chance to win, he “decided” not to run. Ever since then, he has been on a full-time audition to become a commentator for MSNBC or CNN...

First class phony jerk.

I think a Democrat will his seat this year. Everything I read says Arizona is rapidly turning into a blue state.
