Former Arizona GOP Sen. Jeff Flake issued a scathing rebuke of those in his party who stand with President Trump during his impeachment.
Flake, 56, who did not run for reelection in 2018, published an op-ed titled, "Jeff Flake: The president is on trial. So are my Senate Republican colleagues," in the Washington Post on Friday.
"As we approach the time when you do your constitutional duty and weigh the evidence arrayed against the president, I urge you to remember who we are when we are at our best. And I ask you to remember yourself at your most idealistic," Flake wrote. "We are conservatives. The political impulses that compelled us all to enter public life were defined by sturdy pillars anchored deep in the American story."

Funny stuff.
“So are my Senate Republican colleagues”
Should change that to “all”, as opposed to Republican, because we here know that they were all involved in Ukrainian corruption up to their sorry necks. Weren’t they?
Why is ANYBODY quoting Jeff Flake, for pity sake.
Never has a politician had a more appropriate last name. Describes him to a T

Former. He’s “former” for a reason.
Idiot
So glad he's former, and no longer doing the DemocRATs' work in the Senate.
There is a reason we think the President did nothing wrong. It's because he did nothing wrong. As brazen as the shampeachment is, the DemocRATs still could not bring themselves to include any actual allegations of criminal activity in the articles. I.e., they could not bring themselves to commit perjury in an action they know history will judge them for.
This is why Flake is a Former Senator.Always on the wrong team.
Who’s Jeff Flake and why should I care. (/rhetorical)
Hey Flakey: I’ll call your “objective reality” and raise you “federal rules of evidence”.
Is it permitted to call him a ‘twatwaffle’ on Free Republic?
Is he still alive?
a bowl of corn flakes is smarter than this
liberal liar purporting to be the “conservative”-du-jour.
Just another snake.
Scrambled eggs for brains.
Hey Jeffey boy, trying to get your name in the news again?
Which Ukrainian oligarch rented Flake?
When does Flake go on tour with his comedy show?
