"Jeff Flake (R-Ariz.), who has vowed to oppose all court picks until he gets a vote on legislation protecting special counsel Robert Mueller."
Senator Grassley, don't compromise on that issue. Time is on our side, and you'll get the needed majority soon enough!

I think we were told at the Kavanaugh hearing that Kavanaugh’s name could move out of committee without Flake’s vote if necessary - that it could still be voted on by the full Senate so why wouldn’t the same apply here?

Flake is and has been a vindictive sorry excuse for a senator his entire term.
He should have his butt thrown off the committee right now.

Someone here tried to convince me that Flake was mostly conservative and got a bad rap, that he'd be reliable on judges.
I hope that Freeper has learned that RINOs who lie about being tea party guys just to get elected can't be trusted to be faithful in any aspect of their political dealings. In fact, RINOs in general can't be counted on to ever do the right thing.
In Jeff Flake's case, he can always be counted n to do the wrong thing.

Kind of reminds you of the guy in the movie “Die Hard” who starts to sing like a bird to Hans Gruber (Alan Rickman) in the later part and nearly screws up John McClane’s efforts in resisting the terrorists.

Where was the senate seat we WON on election night and then LOST and the R candidate didn’t put up as much as a whimper?
That would have been net FOUR and the first time in almost 100 years that’s happened for an incumbent’s party.

All over legislation that even Flake knows is unconstitutional.
Congress can’t impose conditions on the executive branch’s management of executive officials apppointment and removal.
An 1866 law to that effect was ruled unconstitutional by the Supreme Court.

Flake is gone at the Christmas recess. His seat went to a Bi-sexual Democrat.

I recall POTUS saying during the 2016 debates, that every politician ought to wear big buttons showing his biggest donors, who own them.
I wonder who owns Flake? Same people who owned McCain and all the other traitors....

Trump should take his boot and plant it firmly up Flakes ass.

The people of AZ should be piling on Flake demanding that he remove his opposition The people of AZ who just elected a batsh*t crazy socialist to replace him? The same people of AZ who elected both Flake and McCain before that? THOSE "People of AZ"? Really? Arizona is changing, and is no longer a Red State. It's purple and trending Blue.

McCain must have willed his mean spirited selfishness to Flake, because Flake seems worse in recent months.
