Will Jeff Flake soon retire to run a Junior College or open a restaurant?

Is that why I never heard of him? Well, I am sure he will be missed.

How did his district vote in the last election? We don’t want to loose the majority.

Pure propaganda.

Trump is going right down the middle of the Conservative ideals.

This 'centerist GOP' talk is pure nonsense.

He was one more registered Republican who lived a lie for as long as he held office. He was a Democrat at heart.

This was a bird-whistle headline, attracting Leftists and potential Leftists with a big lie stated as fact.

They get such a kick out of depicting Trump as being a far right radical. Bull stuff!

Trump is adhering to the U. S. Constitution.

That is what centrist is for all you political novices out there. This is the U.S.A., and our Constitution is the document that governs this nation.

Leftists love to dream and smear otherwise.

Do sorry to see you go, Mr. Never-Trump extraordinaire.

Go home, never come back. And be thankful you were not tarred and feathered.
