Sen. Jeff Flake (R-Ariz.) said Sunday that President Trumps constant attacks on Democrats immigration views undermine efforts to broker a deal for reform on the issue.
Congress has to fix this. And whats bothersome is the presidents rhetoric about the Democrats and their unwillingness to have any type of border security or control, Flake said on ABCs This Week.
Flake, an outspoken GOP critic of the president, noted that Democrats have in the past voted to support billions of dollars in funding for border security enhancements, such as the 2013 Gang of Eight bill that ultimately failed to pass in the Senate.
They are on record supporting significant border control, Flake said. And so, when the president says that and calls them clowns and losers, how does he expect the Democrats to sit down and work with Republicans on these issues?"
Words matter, what the president says matters, and he ought to knock that off, added Flake, who is retiring in January.
Trump signed an executive order last week halting family separations. He has called on Congress to pass additional comprehensive immigration legislation.
On Sunday, Trump urged Democrats to fix the laws, adding dont RESIST.

There are rumors around that Flake is considering challenging Tump for the nomination. I hope he does; Id love to see him end his political career with a good old fashioned butt kicking.
I HATE them!!! I am tired of these Quizling Republicans like Flake. They are so damn ingrained in DC that they constantly buy, hook, line and sinker the medias narrative.
The world according to Flake:
Trumps constant attack on democrats = unhelpful
yet, democrats using every vile method in their attack on Teump= no comment or even acknowledgement that it is going on.
What an idiot.
What about Dems attacks on conservatives....like the Red Commie Hen against Sarah Sanders....or the whacked Hollyweirdos against POTUS/POTUS family???
What does Dandruff Flake have to say about that??
Fixed
Geez flake. Your attacks on PDJT aren’t helping. Just STFU for your remaining days in office. Then you can go to work full time for the dnc.
The President has a voice too, idjit.
But the endless “attacks” on President Trump by the communist and Nazi “democrats” and their maggots in the “media” aren’t “bothersome”? STFU Flake boy. You have no clue what the hell you’re talking about.
Celebrate the Day this flaky quisling is OUT OF GOVERNMENT FOREVER...
Bothersome = WORKING.
FUJF.
Yes, unhelpful and bothersome to the deep state. That is the way it should be. Go PDJT!
Flake ignores how Trump supporters and staff are being treated. The truth is not his strength.
Oh YEA??! Then why are they pitching a "Fit" when Trump orders the "enhancements" done on the border!!
So 34 out of 51 or 61% are in the uniparty. Doesn’t look good for us.
Yeah, they're on recording saying a lot of things. If you'll recall, it was Bill Clinton his own horn-doggy self who signed The Violence Against Women Act.
Hey Jeff!
Regarding “bothersome” and “unhelpful” LOOK IN THE MIRROR!!!
Their TIME magazine narrative has been exposed as FAKE NEWS.
As much as the Democrats and the media try to maintain their narrative, they are being countered with facts such as the Obama administration was holding kids in cages and separating children and parents.
Take every opportunity in every forum to present the fact.
One trick I like to use is use their own sources such as Huffington Post and NYT. They may try spin but the facts about what Obama did are in their own articles if you look carefully.
No, it doesn’t.
We have to stop voting for Bush League Republicans.
We will never get legislation favorable to the citizens from them.
Are Flake’s attacks on Trump helpful?
It is theater of the absurd.
Hey Flake-Off, if words matter then stop calling Trump effin Hitler.
We are living in 2 worlds.
They can say Auschwitz but if Trump says “loser” he is out of bounds.
What am I reading? It is LSD world.
