Former Arizona Sen. Jeff Flake made a bold claim on Thursday when he said "at least 35" GOP senators would privately vote for President Trump's impeachment.

Appearing at the 2019 Texas Tribune Festival, Flake, a frequent critic of the president, offered his own reaction and predicted that close to three dozen Republican senators would back impeachment.

"I heard someone say if there were a private vote there would be 30 Republican votes. That's not true," Flake said during a Q&A. "There would be at least 35."

Votes aren’t private.

How come Flake doesn’t have an MSNBC gig yet?

And again it’s a meaningless claim. There will NEVER be a secret/private vote.

Just an anti-Trumper wanting to read about himself.

People are HUGELY pissed at this point....it would not take much for it to boil over.

If the Demoscum and their buddies the RINOscum got away with peaches, they'd come after us Trump-supporters and REAL conservatives next.

To paraphrase Nathan Bedford Forrest: We'd have to get there first, with the most boiled rope.

There's a list of them that I would enjoy watching kicking their life out at the south end of a north-bound rope...

They’re ball-less pr*cks if they can’t admit it in public.

“And many of those 35 Republican senators would go down in flames at the ballot box.”

many? how about ALL? AND just for fun, the entire GOP party would be destroyed forever as well ... Flake is total dimwit ...

Were that to happen, the GOP would be dead and buried.

While I realize Jeff Flake is a moron, I also know that many RINO’s would be tempted to impeach just to prove they are bi-partisan.
I make this pledge as a lifelong Conservative who donates small amounts of my hard earned money to the RNC and certain candidates I agree with: If any republican in the house votes to impeach my president, I will never donate another dollar to the RNC again. I have some worthy charity’s that use the money in a more productive way than RINO’s ever will.
It’s time you walked in lock step with our President, just like the Dems do for Pelosi and Schumer.

My daughter is a lawyer. Mostly land use and environmental concern clients. She frequently feels at conflict with her personal opinion and the law and it’s processes. But she’s a successful lawyer. So I guess that means she curbs her bark.

He truly needs to change his name.

Perhaps to something like “Psoriasis”.

Actually, he does leave a bit of himself each time he changes costume.

Oh, I will not give any to the party until AFTER a vote, if they prove themselves. Dollars go directly to candidates.
