Flake: 'My party might not deserve to lead'
The Hill ^ | March 15, 2018 | Julia Manchester

Sen. Jeff Flake (R-Ariz.) hit the Republican Party on Thursday for its support of President Trump, saying the party may not deserve to lead.

"If we are going to cloister ourselves in the alternative truth of an erratic leader, if we are going to refuse to live in the world that everyone else lives in and reckon with the daily reality that they face including the very real anxiety that they feel, then my party might not deserve to lead," Flake said in an address at the National Press Club.

Flake was a Cheap Labor Express stooge when he was in the House. I knew that and I live in VA.

People in AZ really know how to pick ‘em; that’s why I am discouraged about getting a conservative into Flake’s seat.

He is exactly right, of course. Any party that would claim him is not fit to lead anything.

So my question is, what is his party?

I swear I thought I heard this AM on the TV Flake say “Never Trumpus Americanus”?

Wasn’t looking at the screen when I heard it but the segment was about Flake.

Flake hasn’t figured it out... He isn’t a Republican, and he may not even be a Democrat. Socialist rarely join the socialist party because America is basically a 2 party nation. So they either become Democrat (the natural party for your typical socialist) but occasionally you find socialist who are really screwed up... Like Flake, McCain, etc... They join the Republican party.

Why do they join it? That’s the perplexing question.

Well, if Flake is referring to the Democrats (he seems to be one), then he is correct - no way that party should have control of anything at this point. But both parties suck at this point because they are both lovers of big government and anti-freedom.

Flake: 'My party might not deserve to lead.

He is correct. His party, the Democrats, do not deserve to lead.

Flake’s GOPe version does not deserve to lead.

Trump’s America First version does deserve to lead.
