Flakey, the only thing you fear is that the Republicans have rejected you and you can't get re-elected because your constituents have abandoned you.

Back-stabbing the Republicans is not going to endear yourself to them, Jeff.

Clue-challenged.

Flake is running in 2020 as a spoiler. I guarantee.

principled conservatism really is = kowtowing to globalist corpratist interest , cheap labor (illegal and legal), tariff free imports while our exports are heavily taxed all over the world. Are these the principles you espouse Flakey?

What Flake is really concerned about is that the Bush League Republicans are losing control of the GOP.

Spot on analysis.

Saint Jeffy has a NINE percent approval rating now.

Juan McLame had a BELOW 20 percent approval rating last summer. The idea that Juan was a “maverick” beloved by Arizona was a fantasy created by the Fake News Media.

Good riddance, Saint Jeffy! You are a phony and a coward. Good luck with your new job at the Dollar Tree Store!!!

This is what I found:

“Eponym
An eponym is a person, place, or thing after whom or after which something is named, or believed to be named. The adjectives derived from eponym include eponymous and eponymic. For example, Elizabeth I of England is the eponym of the Elizabethan era, and “the eponymous founder of the Ford Motor Company” refers to Henry Ford”. ~ Wikipedia

Flake is lying when he says Republicans have to condone Trump's "behaviors." They don't. They need to support his major policies.

With respect to Trump's "behaviors", other Republicans need only not help Democrats blow those behaviors out of proportion. You can respond to questions with "I don't agree with that particular statement by the President" and then move on.

Virtue-signallers like Flake are despised because they are willing to sabotage important policies simply because they don't like the President's tone. And they generally compound their sanctimony by refusing to criticize Democrats whose "tone" is worse than Trump's.

Frankly, I see that the Communists are finally coming out of the shadows and making themselves known as a very positive thing. That makes target acquisition much simpler.

I’m actually hopeful for the future of the Republican Party. With the undercover Democrats and Rhinos leaving and swamp creatures being primaried things are moving in a positive direction. Long way to go though.

What does he mean that Republicans should not have followed up on Kav confirmation?

The Democrats are letting their Communist freak flag fly, and this guy is worried about the Republicans?

When McCain's body was driven to the airport and there were NO CITIZENS LINING THE STREETS TO WATCH THE BODY GO BY - IT WAS OBVIOUS HE WAS NOT LOVED BY 'THE PEOPLE'.

It was the opposite when McCain's body was at the National Cathedral surrounded by the horrible 'elites' that almost destroyed our country. THEY were his fans and fellow Trump haters.

The whole farce was disgusting.
