Arizona Republican Sen. Jeff Flake says his party's presumptive nominee cannot win the general election.

"Let's face it: meet the old Trump, just like the new Trump," Flake said to reporters on Capitol Hill in the Senate hallway. "We've got what we've got. That's not somebody who can win the White House."

Floyd Flake, aka FF. as in F’d Up.

These bastards are trying to sabotage Trump’s campaign because he opposes the kind of wheeling and dealing they do every day to get rich from crooked globalist corporations which donate campaign dollars in return for special consideration in legislation in Washington. I hope this bastard and all the rest of them get voted out of office. Serial incumbents are a threat to the Republic - what’s left of it.

Senator Flake is again living up to his last name....here is what Hillary Clinton and senators like Flake will complete if they win this "No United States Constitution....

This is based on Saul Alinsky’s eight steps from democracy to socialist society.

Obama quotes him often in his book, and Hillary did her thesis on Alinsky.

ALMOST DONE. JUST ONE ELECTION DECIDES OUR FATE ...

ALMOST THERE

There are 8 levels of control that must be obtained before you are able to create a socialist/communist State. The first is the most important.

FIVE OF THE 8 ARE DONE - THE LAST THREE ARE ALMOST THERE

1. Healthcare: "Control Healthcare and you control the People"
DONE !!

2. Poverty: “Increase the Poverty level as high as possible.” Poor People are easier to control and will not fight back if the government is providing everything for them to live.
DONE!!!

3. Debt: “Increase the National Debt to an unsustainable level.” That way you are able to increase Taxes, and this will produce more Poverty.
DONE!!!

4. Gun Control: Remove the ability to defend themselves from the Government. That way you are able to create a Police State - total local control.
ALMOST THERE!!!

5. Welfare: Take control of every aspect of their lives (Food, Livestock, Housing, and Income). DONE!!!

6. Education: Take control of what People read & listen to; take control of what Children learn in School.
ALMOST THERE!!!

7. Religion: Remove faith in God from the Government and Schools. ALMOST THERE!!!

8. Class Warfare: Divide the People into the Wealthy against the Poor. Racially divide. This will cause more discontent and it will be easier to Tax the Wealthy with full support of the voting Poor.

The bases are all covered! We are ripe!

“Let’s face it: meet the old Trump, just like the new Trump,” Flake said to reporters on Capitol Hill in the Senate hallway.”

It’s “meet the *new* whatever, same as the *old* whatever.

“Meet the old” whatever doesn’t even make any sense.

What an idiot. That’s not just getting your tongue over your eyetooth or forgetting the spelling of a word when you’re exhausted, that is an unequivocal indication of low intelligence.

We need some mechanism for forcing public servants to sit for the GRE and obtain some minimum score to keep their jobs.

What a Flake!

Guess what, Jeffy - good luck getting any conservatives to show up in November if you try the old switcheroo.

A guy who, after being confronted about breaking his promise not to run again after three terms in Congress, glibly replied “I lied.”

Thus sayeth the loser who underperformed loser Romney in his own 2012 election, managing to win by 49% to 46% . . . in a state even Romney managed to win by over 10%.

Romney could not win. McCain could not win. Those are facts and both of those were middle ground RINOs. Stick to the facts.
