GOP Sen. Jeff Flake donates to Alabama Democrat Doug Jones' senate campaign
cbsnews.com ^ | 12/5/17

resident Trump may have thrown his support to GOP Alabama Senate candidate Roy Moore, but another Republican, Arizona Sen. Jeff Flake, made it clear he does not think Moore should be elected to fill Jeff Sessions' former seat. He wrote a $100 check to Moore's opponent, Democrat Doug Jones, and tweeted a photo, with a simple caption, "Country over Party."

The Arizona senator has also tweeted, "Just to be clear. If the choice is between Roy Moore and a Democrat, I would run to the polling place to vote for the Democrat." After the Washington Post reported that several women had been pursued by Moore when they were teenagers and he was in his 30s, including one woman who was 14 years of age when she had sexual contact with Moore, Flake called on Moore to step aside.

Jones should be insulted. What is Flakey’s net worth?
I’ll bet he stiffs pizza drivers.

These RHINOs have no belief system other than the instinct to get good press.

McConnell again tolerated - encourages - defiance by GOP Senators. 80% of the GOP Senators are swamp rats.

So in Flakey's demented mind, a man who is merely accused of moral turpitude (by nobody credible) is worse than a national party which celebrates moral turpitude?

What if someone comes out and declares they saw Flakey boinking a giraffe on Trafalgar Square?

Arizona, what the hell is wrong with you people? You have a Conservative state and these two clowns are the best you can send to represent your state. With those two you will soon be CA Jr.

Flake doesn’t care about facts or corroborated allegations. He just wants them to be true and is going with that.

Jeff Flake’s official Twitter with picture of the check.

(The Blue Check to the right of Jeff Flaks’s name means Twitter has verified this is Jeff Flake’s account).

What makes him think Doug Jones cares about the country?

He’s burning bridges it appears, or getting ready to run as a D.

Saint Jeffy is a bitter, bitter sore loser. He just donated to an evil man who advocates for unfettered unlimited BLOODY abortion.

You are now a loathsome despicable abortionist, Saint Jeffy, just like Jones.

Moore is going to win and Saint Jeffy will soon be a janitor at a local Mormon church. I am greatly enjoying the schadenfreude.
