Poll: Bashing Trump Is Not Working For Flake In His Home State
Daily Caller ^ | 2:29 PM 08/03/2017 | Henry Rodgers

Republican Arizona Sen. Jeff Flake’s approval rating is at a drastically low number in his home state after he has continued to bash President Donald Trump according to a new Democratic Poll.

The left leaning polling group, Public Policy Polling (PPP) found only 18 percent approve of the job Flake is doing. Meanwhile 62 percent disapprove and 19 percent are not sure how they feel about him. These numbers come after Flake has continued to criticize Trump throughout his presidency and refused to endorse him during the 2016 presidential campaign.

If the 2018 mid-term election were held today, just 31 percent of respondents said they would support Flake’s re-election bid, compared to 47 percent who said they would support a generic Democratic opponent, according to the poll. …

Arizona is screwed up - since McCain has been elected forever, I’d wager they would vote for any other rabid Democrat over a real Republican - If he lives, McCain can stay in until he dies and RINOs will be replaced by other hard left Dems.

Ayotte was defeated by Ayotte. She was elected as a conservative and served as a McCainiac. If she’d been there, she would’ve been part of the Collins/Murkowski gaggle.

Bye bye Senate. So about that immigration policy, about that wall, about those tax cuts, about those jobs.....Trump can kiss his first 4 years goodbye. The GOP will lose the Senate and Trump will be lucky to get all his positions filled let alone a single piece of meaningful legislation.

I’ll use Sub’s words of here’s another case of Conservatives eating their own. He cited it perfectly that Conservatives eat their own and liberals stick together. This site is filled with subversives hell bent of fomenting arguments for arguments sake. I don’t know if it’s out of frustration of the reality of President Trump having a hell of a time getting his agenda passed orbits lashing outbwhen someone points to the obvious.

This isn’t about Cruz you dolt it’s about a GOPe Senate hell bent on blocking Trump at every turn. What’s with some of you folks immediately turning to the twitch of Cruz Cruz Cruz? It’s worse than Russia Russia Russia or whining Hillary supporters still to this day. Get over it, the primaries are OVER! I support our President and still support Cruz. We came together, well at least some of us did. Why is the immediate reaction to anything critical someone whining about 9 months ago pointing to a primary? I can’t figure out if it’s out of frustration because our President is unable to pull his party together and a Senate unwilling to do the will of the people or damn hero worship.

As I said in 45 this you make the perfect case of conservatives eating their own and liberals pulling together. Liberals succeed because they move on to the bigger strategic things of first sticking together while conservatives spend their time in the weeds bashing and eating their own, in Government and on this site

I’d love to believe you but I just don’t see it. I lived 3 years in Phoenix and saw first hand the illegal immigration and LEGAL immigration problem. Then watching Sherrif Joe get tossed followed up wit the reelection of McStain I feel Arizona from a Senate perspective may be a lost cause now

Flake is no conservative though. So when one sees Republicans eating their own, it is the liberals on the conservatives, thus it is the liberals of the GOP sticking with the liberals in the Democratic Party.

One of the plans of the communists, per The Naked Communist, was to take over the Democrats and Republicans. And by the time that book was first published (1958), the achievement of that goal was well under way.

He should save his campaign funds. He will need them in retirement.

Flake is such a worthless congressman that, when hew was in the house, companies in his district opened satellite offices in surrounding congressional districts to work with representatives willing and able to represent them.

18%

I wonder what his approval would be if you polled only non-LDSers? Like -2 or something?
