Jeff Flake tells GOP not to support Trump in 2020
CNN ^ | Sept. 30, 2019 | Devan Cole

The rest of the title: It's 'time to risk your careers in favor of your principles.'

Former GOP Sen. Jeff Flake on Monday urged Republicans in Congress not to support President Donald Trump's 2020 reelection bid, saying they have a moral obligation to put their principles first -- even if it means risking their careers.

Flake, a longtime Trump critic who has before argued that the Republican Party should not support the President in 2020, made his case in an op-ed published in The Washington Post titled "Fellow Republicans, there's still time to save your souls," writing that Senate Republicans should refuse to support a second term for the President, despite their feelings on the Democrat-controlled House's impeachment inquiry.

"My fellow Republicans, it is time to risk your careers in favor of your principles. Whether you believe the president deserves impeachment, you know he does not deserve reelection," wrote Flake, who represented Arizona before he left Congress earlier this year.

President Trump is working hard to indeed Make America Great Again and we absolutely must support him and reelect him, so he can complete what he started.

The only principle Bush League Republicans hold dear is turning the USA into North Mexico.

Flimsey Grahamnesty is one of them, don’t let his re-election rhetoric fool you.
He learned the McCain two-step from the master.

The election of President Trump has proven without a doubt that most all “professional politicians” from BOTH parties care nothing at all about our country or the American people...They are concerned with nothing but their own power...It is so damned obvious from the actions of th last two years...

America and our people have moved upward in the last two years more than we have moved in the last 16 years combined...The “professional politicians” cannot stand it...
