Flake warns: Trump headed for GOP primary challenge in 2020
Fox News ^ | December 24, 2017 | Joseph Weber

Trump critic and Republican Sen. Jeff Flake suggested Sunday that the president’s words and actions have left him open to a primary challenge if he seeks reelection.

“If he continues on the path that he's on, that is going to leave a huge swath of voters looking for someone else,” Flake, who is not seeking reelection in 2018, told ABC News’ “This Week.” He's probably inviting a Republican challenge.”

Flake also said Trump’s continued path could result in a “diminished base” and “a huge swath of voters in the middle that may be looking for something else” -- including a “far left” president like Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, an Independent, or Massachusetts Democratic Sen. Elizabeth Warren.

Social media is the human equivalent of peeing on trees to mark territory and howling to let other predictors know how big you are. Some people can pull it off and impress. Others, not so much.

If the economy is humming and little Kim is replaced or quiet Trump will be impossible to challenge. I think both of those will be true.

Here is the difference between Republicans and Democrats.. Democrats do not care who is the leader as long as it is a Democrat and they can push ahead their Progressive agenda. Republicans, on the other hand, undermine, backstab and throw each other under the bus. It’s not enough for Flake that we are getting our agenda through? It’s not enough for him that for the first time in years we are getting Republican policies through, conservative judges approved, tax reform, ISIS destroyed. GOD FORBID THE REPUBLICANS SHOULD PULL TOGETHER. Who cares is they like him personally or not. WHO CARES?

This is dog barking mad kind of talk.

Yes it is. The jerk has high ambitions in politics, I'm sure the WH.

He'll do most anything such as he did as a brand new senator when he hitched on to Juan and the RATS with the gang of eight.

Good. Primarying, even incumbents, is healthy.

A warning? That’s almost as serious as Gowdy writing a letter to
the FBI asking for more documents. Please pretty please, provide
more documents.

Like a Republican John Kerry. He’s got the same dumb look on his face.

I couldn’t agree more.

The GOPe are not happy Trump is succeeding in doing something they should have been doing for years.

Oh yeah. The electorate is simply clamoring for a Jeb Bush. Or they would be very happy with a John Kasich. Perhaps the corpse of John McCain will become the new leader of the Republican Party. Marco Rubio is still out there a formidable Forest among... Very few. I am sure all of these losers will give Trump a serious run for his money.
