Is anyone else beginning to get an uneasy feeling that Arizona Senator Jeff Flake if planning to switch parties? I think there must be something more that his dismal showing in favorability polls to explain his recent extreme anti-Trump and anti-GOP remarks and actions. And I don't think his stupid book explains his actions either.
If he is thinking of switching, do you think he might have two other Republican (RINO) Senators who would simultaneously defect to give Schumer control of the Senate?
Hopefully, time will show this was needless worries. But I don't know -- the antiTrumpers have been proving themselves capable of anything in their desperation.
I think Obama et. al. has blackmail on everyone (AWAN) and can do as he wishes, just as he did when in office.
Correction his career is toast.
hope so.. get him out now.. he’s a major threat
I really think that if Hillary had won, McCain, Flake and Linda would have flipped.
Jeff Flake’s name comes up again and again in connection with Pedogate. There are many Republicans who have been set up in front of hidden Democrat video cameras in bedrooms.
Flake MUST be removed from office in 208, along with Corker, Hatch and Heller for voting for Rubio’s amnesty.
Graham has told us they will keep voting for amnesty if we don’t take them out.
What difference does it make what party he’s in or who controls the senate?
All of them are enemies of America and Americans.
Flake says he has no plans to leave the Republican Party and become a Democrat or an independent, despite his disagreements with the president. “I’m a proud Republican — always have been always will be,” Flake said. “Why would I do that? I’m for economic freedom and individual responsibility. The Republican party is more closely aligned to those principles. And so that’s what this book is an affirmation of those principles and a call to return to civility and decency and decorum.”
President Trump got more votes in 2016 (1,200,000) than #FlakeAmerican did in 2012 (1,100,000).
President Trump is more popular than frosted flake.
Flake is suicidal.
The more Flake bashes Republicans the more Sunday Morning Talk Shows he’ll be invited on....
Chuck Todd gave him his hone phone number...
If so, the President Trump should broadcast this to the nation and implore the voters to Cantorize every GOPe congresscritter. This way, we can start fresh, now that awan and the deep state are being neutralized.
Nope...Flake will not find friends in the Democrats, they’ll never, ever, trust him, when the alternative is a PROVEN LEFTIST.
Thanks for that post. I can’t imagine Flake winning his Republican primary next year unless he can pull off a “McCain” (I.e., to arrange to have multiple primary challengers to split the “defeat Flake” vote as well as to encourage many ‘RAT voters to cross over). Hopefully, conservatives in Arizona will rally around a challenger to Flake BEFORE the primary. But egos abound in politics!
Collins could well go “independent” (something of a Maine tradition) and then become a de facto Democrat caucus vote if it came to that.
The rumor is Collins is going to run for governor of Maine. So put a Democrat in that seat after 2020.
When conservatives win power, rinos threaten to switch parties if their demands are not met. Demonrats never do this. They just leave.
Never heard of a Mormon Democrat and I’ve lived amongst them for over 50 years. He won’t switch. McCain is a bigger worry but he wont switch either. We might lose Collins, don’t think we would lose Murkowski.
Ever heard of the Udalls? Harry Reid? LDS Democrats
