GOP Sen. Jeff Flake isnt ruling out a primary challenge to President Trump in 2020.
I wont go there. Thats a long time away, the Arizona senator told CNN, when asked if he or another Republican should oppose Trump in the next election. Its early. Time will take care of itself.
Flake announced that he would not be seeking re-election on Tuesday in an emotional speech that sharply criticized Trump and his leadership.
After the speech, he told CNN that Republicans like himself, who are willing to criticize the president, have a narrow path to election.
I would have to run a campaign that I couldnt be proud of, he said. And I chose not do that.
Flake, who said he believes the president is setting a bad example for children, called out Trump for tweeting at foreign leaders and referring to Democrats as losers or clowns.

People I know hate his guts.
Yeah, but, he’s going to need that campaign money to live on so he has to keep stringing the gullible along.
This IDIOT can't even win Reelection and now he wants to take down TRUMP in a Primary?
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
incumbent Senator quits because he’s down 26% in his Senate re-election primary in his home state, but won’t rule out a national run against the most popular President in his party in half a century. So, I say: GO FOR IT JEFF!!!
So he dropped out because he can’t win in Nov. but thinks he ca beat Trump, Flake is a flake.
When an incumbent can’t even come close in a primary in his own State, what are his chances in a national .....
“When an incumbent cant even come close in a primary in his own State, what are his chances in a national .....”
Like Kasich. Only won his own state in the primaries, yet remained in the race thinking he could be the GOP candidate. Delusional.
Bring raw eggs to his rallies.
Yes, he is a youngster born in 62. It appears he has been a do nothing all his life.
Many have tried, many have died. Politically speaking, of course.
There are going to be five or six competing for the anti-Trump vote. They will lose and pay the price.
Flake would be like a snowflake in 120 degrees. He is a total blathering IDIOT.
