Sen. Jeff Flake of Arizona disparaged President Donald Trumps promise to erect a physical border wall along the U.S.-Mexico border, arguing nobody ought to support the idea.
Obviously all of us believe in border security. It depends what he means by the wall and we still really havent seen what he means by the wall, Flake said on CNNs State of the Union. If thats a metaphor for border security we can support that but if hes talking about a solitary, brick and mortar two thousand mile edifice on the border, then no, nobody ought to support that.
Immigration has played a key role in Trumps recent attacks on Flake. Trump has repeatedly called the Arizona conservative weak on border security and has expressed public support for his primary challenger Dr. Kelli Ward.
(TWEET-AT-LINK)
Flake addressed Trumps vocal criticisms, defending his attacks on much of the Presidents agenda as his duty to the people of Arizona.
The people in Arizona tend to elect independent-minded, principled senators: Barry Goldwater, John McCain. I think the voters here expect me to have my own franchise, to represent them, not be a rubber stamp for the president, so Im quite comfortable being where I am.
U.S. Customs and Border Protection acting deputy commissioner Ronald Vitiello said this week that construction will begin on four prototypes for the border wall in the coming weeks.
Probably.
I certainly do.
But why should he lock the door to his house while at the same time demanding we leave the “door” to our country wide open?
Flake just keeps making things worse for himself.
Build the wall. MAGA.
Keep talking, Flake, you treacherous POS. Your job is history, you’re going to get the he @ss-kicking if your life in 2018.
Better polish up on your WalMart night-stocker skills.
Then nobody should support corn Flake.
What is this guy’s problem? Who has him by the shirt hairs???
One thing I will always give Trump credit for: he exposed that the GOPe was never serious at all about border security.
And say hello to...
...Kelli, Kelli, Kelli, Kelli,
Dear Senator Flake, sometimes a Wall is just a Wall.
Communists and Tyrants erect Walls to keep people IN.
Sovereign Nations (and Welfare States) erect Walls to keep people OUT.
Well, they should anyway. #;^)
Nobody DOES support the wall! Nobody thinks it’s fair to make Mexico pay for the wall! That’s why I’m in support of Nobody and will work hard to ensure that Nobody occupies Flake’s seat in the Senate.
Senator Flake, I will personally donate my time and money to drive to your Home in AZ to help you remove ALL the Exterior Doors, take down any Fencing surrounding your property and paint a 4’ by 8’ Sign to place in your front yard that says “Bienvenidos, Mi Case Es Su Casa”.
Just FReepmail me and I'll be on my way.
My wife and I moved to Arizona about five years ago. We supported Dr. Kelli Ward in her primary run in 2016 and we plan to support but also actively campaign for her and show Flake what independent minded Arizonans really want.
A Flakeless Border with a Wall.
OK Arizona. You’ve foisted McCain and Flake on us for too long now. Pull you heads out of your asses, already.
is Flake his real name??? or just a “stage name” or what?
it is SOOOOOOOOOOO appropriate for him, it almost has to be a ‘stage name’....because how could his Dad have known the kid would turn out such a confused...flake??
We have been praying for the outing of the anti “make America great again” crowd. Another one from AZ has just declared himself one for all to see and hear. It will take the Hand of God to clean up this mess. . .only if we and our leaders continue to seek His wisdom and direction.
According to Flake we don’t need a solid 2000 mile wall.Hell!I’ll agree with that.Just make a 2000 mile mine field 5 miles wide. That would slow things down and not ruin the view.That is until the first mine detonate the perp tripping it.
Arizona is not doing the nation any favors sending McCain and Flake to the Senate.
This is a truly stupid man who will eventually be booted from office. There are no crossover voters in Arizona, so Turtle man can’t Cochran into the winner’s circle.

This crooked nose creep is a smartass because he knows RATs will vote for him in a primary.
