Flake Eyes a Presidential Bid


March 16, 2018 at 8:18 am EDTBy Taegan Goddard

Sen. Jeff Flake (R-AZ) “has a direct message for the Republicans of New Hampshire: Someone needs to stop Donald Trump. And Flake, a Republican senator from Arizona, may stand up against the Republican president in 2020 — either as a Republican or an independent — if no one else does,” the AP reports.

Said Flake: “It’s not in my plan to run for president, but I am not ruling it out. Somebody needs to stand up for traditional Republicanism. Somebody needs to raise that, for nothing else than to give people hope that that decent party will be back. We’ll get through this.”

I was just telling this guy at the gym this....he said how brave Flake was...I said nope, he still votes with Trump...he is just positioning himself. Making the R brand look sane, and he has a cute smile, so he thinks he can get away with it.
