Republican Sen. Jeff Flake, a frequent critic of President Donald Trump, said he is concerned about what Trump might promise Russian President Vladimir Putin when the two meet this month.

"It does concern me," the Arizona senator told CNN's Dana Bash on "State of the Union" Sunday. "I'm glad that the President is talking to Vladimir Putin. I'm glad that he's talking to North Korea as well. But I am concerned, and I know there is concern across Europe, about what might be promised."

The two leaders are due to meet on July 16 in Finland, and CNN previously reported Trump plans to meet Putin one-on-one before bringing in others to join their discussions.

Maybe he promised him 20% of our uranium reserves.

Oh too late, Flakes candidate already sold Putin that.

He never showed concern for what 0bummer would do when he had “more flexibility.”

I would be much more concerned with what Trump may promise to Flake, than what Trump may promise to Putin.

Both Putin and Trump understand the implications of making a deal. Jeff Flake apparently does not.

Like McCain, Flake has set himself to be the Democrat’s favorite Republican.

Is certain but the swamp will protect him because Flake is corrupt. It is the way of the swamp

“When our NATO allies hear something like that, you can imagine how they feel, particularly those who are right on the front lines,” Flake said.

Yes, that is the first place Russian tanks will roll if there is war between the U.S. and Russia.

However, I am dreadfully concerned that Flake is concerned. He is such a bellwether of everything that we should be concerned over.

Has Trump promised Putin more “flexibility” after the mid-terms?

Let’s just put it this way, Chump.

They are FAR more pro-conservative and pro-American than those you apparently are defending

Take your juvenile anger to your State GOP and Guv rather than to me. The truth must be killing you to hit you so between the eyes.

As I said before we need to trade Flake, Graham and McCain for a political prisoner.
