I am very disappointed. I can find a little solace in the fact that Joni is a noob and is trying to get some solid footing....she is more susceptible to being handled by someone like McConnell strong-arming her.

I hope she hears from LOTS of Iowa voters and Trump supporters that she is making a YUGE mistake in helping this weasel named Flake.

If the challenger is pro-Trump, then goodbye Flake and good riddance. People are wising up, even in AZ.

Ernst Don’t support Ward because she is a woman but would do a better job. Guess most incumbents would never oppose another because you need to work with each other, But no need to visit his state.

“Joni Ernst (R-Iowa)”

Idiot, or anti-Trumper or paid off or threatened?

The Senate Majority Leader supports Flake, therefore his troops in the Senate are expected to fall into line. Failure to do so would mean a loss of influence within the Republican Senate caucus, influence that can make or break a senator. Ernst is doing what her position requires her to do, nothing more.

If McConnell is removed at some future time, the axis of power within the Senate will shift, and so will she.

I think she was one of the few who didn’t turn her back on Trump during the election so this is a surprise.

What irks me is how that little viper—like so many others—deceptively climbed into office as supposed tea partiers.

It didn’t take long for McConnell and Cornyn to co-opt her.

It seems near impossible for rookies to resist the Swamp’s siren call once they arrive in DC.

Elected in 2014.

Must be record time to convert what seemed like a real person into a DC swamp creature.

Very frustrating to see fearless first time candidates turn into crony politicians. And many in a literally blink of an eye like Ernst.

Shouldn’t that be “Tea Party darling Joni Ernst”?

What is wrong with Joni Ernst? This isn’t the same person voters in Iowa supported. Sen. Flake is a mess, and this will cause Ernst’s base to lose interest and fail to support her.

Jonie the bony,
phony baloney
in the swamp with the snake,
named Senator Flake
The smell of the pork
made her side with that dork.
So, people of Iowa
Reject this swamp rino-ma.

(You can see more evidence of her intimacy with pork here.)
