Sen. Jeff Flake (R-Ariz.) is calling on the local Republican Party to withdraw its sponsorship of a campaign event scheduled for Saturday that will feature presidential candidate Donald Trump and Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio.
In an interview with The Washington Post on Thursday, Flake said both Trump and Arpaio's inflammatory rhetoric about immigrants and about President Obama's place of birth are not reflective of the Republican Party's values.
“It’s not just on the immigration side. Donald Trump is just about the last unapologetic birther in the country," Flake said, referring to Trump's false contention that Obama was not born in the United States. Flake added that Arpaio also is an "unapologetic birther."

AZ Sen. Flake has rushed to protect Sen. McCain who is suspected of cutting the quid pro quo deal not to question Barry's NBC eligibility so long as the DNC backed off questioning his own Panama birth!
he’s a flake...what’s else can be said
Obama’s militant and illegal actions on behalf of illegal aliens would seem to indicate a very personal agenda.
Flake can’t handle the truth.
The GOP, especially the Arizona ISIS-creating
and IRS-Atrocity-provoking GOP, is utterly
disgusting. They are not named the
GIVE OBAMA POWER (GOP) party for nothing.
Ping to Sen. Flake going into panic mode using “birther” as epithet to try to derail Trump and Arpaio getting together in Maricopa County this weekend!
Desperation!
Note that the WaPo reporter quotes Sen. Flake as “...referring to Trump’s false contention that Obama was not born in the United States.” What FALSE contention???
You have to have an actual genuine BC that hasn’t been forged to prove a birth location, IMO.
Flake should in the name of Goldwater should switch parties and beg McPain to follow him!
Isn’t Flake the illustration in the Urban Dictionary for “No Gravitas”?
Jeff Flake will never be more than an embarrassment period.
Arizona conservatives should be demanding reparations from the RNC over this broke-back brownshirt.
Definitely a Flake..
Could Flake have done anything MORE to guarantee that Trump and Arpaio would be GRILLED on whether they believe that Barry’s BC was forged and that Barry was born outside the US and if so WHERE???
Is Flake a democrat? He’s acting like one.
As an Arizonan, Senator Flake has been a major disappointment to me.
Trump should simply respond “OK, I’ll not associate with the party, I’ll run as an independent, and fund myself. You all can spend your money on Jeb and I’ll host a Hillary Inauguration Party at all of my hotels in January 2017”.
Flake Off!
Frickin Flake, Fk’d up, fkr...
Trump should invite Flake and his son to drop by for some HOT DOGS
Some very very HOT DOGS
I ask again: Can someone tell me exactly what ARE the “Republican Values” that Trump doesn’t represent?
Lemme see: um...
Smaller government?
Repealing Obamacare?
Stopping Common Core?
Protecting religious liberties?
After all, that’s what they promised - then ignored.
eh, whatever. I’m going back in my cave. Wake me up when the smoke clears.
Are those the Republican values?
