His approval rating is something like 11%.
No wonder Flake retired. And Trump has accomplished a great deal in spite of his attacks and attempts to defend the Swamp.
Trump has done more for conservatism than Flake and has done so by keeping his promises.
Yeah, for that he “debased” the presidency. He needs to do more of it.
MAGA will continue without Flake around to carp about it.
Flake and those like him want a “blue wave” to vindicate their positions. He will work in the background no doubt even to defeat Martha McSally if she wins the nomination to replace him.
