Nope, the 53 only count on the Floor Vote. One guy on the Committee can hold off the floor Vote, which is what Flake is doing. You will never see a Rat on the Committee Vote for any of POTUS Trump’ Nominees.
If any traitorous GOP bastard votes no in Committee, we have a problem.

Flake doesn’t give a rat’s rear about those of us in Arizona. That is why he was polling in the mid-teens last year (among Republicans!), and why he didn’t try for re-election.

Flake(y) is a jackass with a “face in need of a good punching.” Don’t quite remember what the elegant German term for that expression is.

Someone from California wants to lecture Arizona? On not being conservative enough? YGBSM. Like a lot of Mormons, Flake has TDS. And he is now probably trying to suck up to democrats for a lobbying job in DC 60 days from now.

Those two angry, Mexican elevator ladies scared Flake’s gonads off. The boy ain’t right in the head.
To: yesthatjallen
Make it known to Flake that any company who hires him will be ignored by the Senate. Also tell Flake that the house he owns will be condemned as not fit for human habitation and torn down. Tell Flake that wherever he drives, he will receive countless tickets for speeding and running stop signs. Finally inform Flake that he cannot buy food, gas or clothing in Arizona or within 500 miles of Arizona.

One guy on the Committee can hold off the floor Vote, which is what Flake is doing. The US Constitution, Section 5, clause 1, stipulates that only “a Majority of each [chamber] shall constitute a Quorum to do Business”.
Why not forget the committee.

Yes, But will there be other Republican nays aside from flake? I thought he was blocking approval in committee, but I could be mistaken.

Sen. Jeff Flake is a US Senator from Arizona, which seems to mean he was destined to be a small, petty, spiteful man. Nnot many men from Arizona fit that description, but it seems to fit far too many of their recent US Senators.

You are correct. McConnell ought to simply replace him.

Hate to wait til January, we all know the Demorots taking control of the house will find a way to step in this s—t and block the process. How, we will find out in January. The House has nothing to do with seating Judges. Flake is gone forever in early January along with Ryan and Corker; two other snowflakes. Republicans will have a stronger majority in Jan. and they are talking about reducing the number on the Judicial committee so Flake won't be replaced at all and one junior dem will have to go. That would be Kamala Harris; the flaming biatch from hell.
