Senate Foreign Relations Committee member Sen. Mitt Romney, R-Utah, said he’ll support the nomination of Jeff Flake as U.S. ambassador to Turkey after meeting with Flake Tuesday.

“My friend Jeff Flake is a thoughtful and accomplished public servant who will represent the United States well in a complex region of the world,” Romney said in a statement to Deseret News. “He understands the importance of standing for U.S. interests in Turkey, and I look forward to supporting his nomination when it comes before the Senate.”

When his nomination was announced by the Biden administration in July, the former Republican senator from Arizona wrote that it reaffirmed “the best tradition of American foreign policy and diplomacy: the credo that partisan politics should stop at the water’s edge. U.S. foreign policy can and should be bipartisan.”

Ambassador to Afghanistan is better.

[RandFan]

Yes!! Send him there!

[Flick Lives]

Of course. Wouldn’t expect anything else from Sen. Defecto.

[Zathras]

On a positive thought....Turkey could be a one way trip.
Me bad!

In politics, how do you overcome having your last name be “Flake?” It’s too easy to ridicule.

"Mr. Flake, have you ever seen Midnight Express?"

Send a clueless fool to work with one of the most evil men on Earth. What could go wrong?

[Vigilanteman]

For once, I agree with Mitt the $#*+. Turkey could very well be the next Benghazi under China's puppet emperor.

And when and if that happens, we should create the Kurdish state that wasn't created after World War I.

Sen. Mitt Romney, R-Utah, said he’ll support the nomination of Jeff Flake . “My friend Jeff Flake is a thoughtful and accomplished public servant who will represent the United States well in a complex region of the world,”...

Takes an asshole to know an asshole. Birds of a feather. 🤮

Padding his government pension. Perhaps he can assist Hunter with some deals in Turkey.

Oh, what a surprise!

[Lazamataz]

The fact that the BIDEN administration is considering FLAKE... should tell you all you need to know.

And that ROMNEY backs it... should tell you all you need to know.

[Az Joe]

RINOs of a feather stick together.

“My friend Jeff Flake is a thoughtful and accomplished public servant who will represent the United States well in a complex region of the world,”....................... Another “What’$ in it for me Club Member? Seems like there are different meanings for the words of Public Servant. A Flake pushing for a Flake?

[M Kehoe]

Make Flake live in Ankara.

Please.

Who gives a rats a## what Romney says

[blackdog]

Anyone foolish enough to desire an Ambassadorship inside the Biden State Department indicates they have very few career choices left in life. Nothing more reassuring than seeing Sid Blumenthal, Hunter Biden, and covert CIA guys outside your villa passing around briefcases on behalf of the Clinton’s and The Big Guy.

[Sans-Culotte]

One needs no further proof that RINO pukes like Romney, Flake, Cheney and Bush 43 are members of the conservative-posing wing of the Uniparty.

Appointment to any other country I’d oppose, but sending this turkey to Turkey is too delicious not to support
