Top Republican senator says his party is in 'denial' about Trump
Business Insider ^ | July 31, 2017

Republican Sen. Jeff Flake of Arizona wrote that his party is in "denial" about President Donald Trump in a column in Politico on Monday.

Flake, who is up for reelection in 2018 and is one of the more vulnerable GOP senators in the upcoming election, held little back in the Politico op-ed, describing an executive branch "in chaos" and a president who has "seeming affection for strongmen and authoritarians."

“Can he be ousted in the primary? I hope so.”

He just took his first step in that direction today.

You’re right jeffy - you’re in total denial of the fact that Trump represents the last best hope for the continuance of our republic. With smegheads like you in charge we are doomed.

Flake has a most appropriate name, opportunist and liar should be added to it.

He must feel pretty safe in his seat in Arizona to go spouting off like this.

Arizona has been Californicated and Mexicanized to such an extent that this once staunchly conservative state is now a swing state.

Trump barely won it and they are now persecuting Joe Arpaio, a once revered figure there.

sounds like he feels very vulnerable and is seeking a lot of left wing D votes

but Pres Trump is hardly vulnerable, he’s stronger than even McConnell McShame and Lindsay, plus Pelosi all rolled together

and then some.

yes, they’ve made his work miserable, but he’s persevered and they’ve all made themselves look like horses’ asses

If I lived in Arizona, I would vote for his Democrat opponent just get rid of him. The Democrat will vote the same way and say the same things anyway.

Arizona is in denial about the fact that their Senators are more concerned about keeping the Cheap Labor Express running than they are about the citizens or the nation.

Just watched Flake being interviewed on FoxNews. Never have I seen some so live down to their name. I suspect he may be angling for a presidential shot. He would stand as much chance as the other dipsh** Senator from Arizona.
