As Republicans face a potential Democratic wave in this year's midterm elections, Republican Sen. Jeff Flake argued Thursday that his party "might not deserve to lead" given its support for President Donald Trump.
"If we are going to cloister ourselves in the alternative truth of an erratic leader, if we are going to refuse to live in a world that everyone else lives in ... then my party might not deserve to lead," the Arizona senator said in a speech at the National Press Club.

The party’s been like that ever since Goldwater (the formerly archetypical AZ Republican) published his book, which even described the GOP’s shift left that long ago.
Is Flake so stupid he’s unaware the press only is interested in what he says because he bashes Trump, or is Flake so vain he thinks his opinion is important. Or both.
Flake is used to leading from the rear.
This guy is on the other side. I would surmise that someone is paying this whore.
Hey jerk. We refused to re-elect this crapweasel so he stepped down. Got it? He was up for re-election this year. Who are your senators anyway?
AZ is being set up to elect McSallycain as the next Flake.
why do we hear from you every damned day now???

Because he desperately wants to run for President is why.
Kansas, USA. Look it up like I did yours.
The GOP is dead to me. The only reason to vote “R” is because the “D” sucks more in most cases. I have come to believe since 2000 the GOP has done more damage to the country than the Rats because they enable or turn a blind eye.
Unfortunately - too long.
maybe he could be HilLIARy’s VP?
Agreed. This beta needs to just go aw as y.. fade already. If he’s not running, why are they still giving this loser air time?
A party that doesnt have the cojones to expel pizzleheads like him, is not much of a party.
After hearing parts of flakes speech on the radio, and hearing how he’s in frequent communication with obama, I think obama and his groomers are grooming flake. He has started using a different speech pattern, and his cheesy rhetoric is reminiscent of obama.
He’s just bitter because internals showed that the voters of his party were going to throw his sorry ass out in favor of basically any primary challenger. He knows it, so he’s quitting in a pathetic attempt to save face. This is all posturing to bolster the preposterous narrative that he is somehow voluntarily choosing to leave out of principle. LOL...not fooling anyone, Jeffrey.
The RINOS love being the minority party, or the majority party with a Democrat president.
Hey Flakester, go away! When Americans want any crap out of you, we’ll unscrew your head and dip it out. BTW: I thought you quit the Republican Party and was going to try to get elected as an “Independent”.
Its his party folks. That is what he saying haha
“What is wrong with Arizona these days?”
6 years ago, he ran as a Tea Party conservative. Within a week of the election, he swung hard left. There is a reason he was polling in the TEENS before announcing he wouldn’t run again...
