Rollins on Jeff Flake: He Will Go Down As One of the Great Turncoats and Cowards in Senate History

Full title:

GOP Consultant Ed Rollins on Jeff Flake: He Will Go Down As One of the Great Turncoats and Cowards in Senate History (VIDEO)

Earlier in the day on Friday Senator Jeff Flake announced he would vote to confirm Brett Kavanaugh out of the Judiciary Committee.

Then he got cornered in an elevator by a screaming leftist for 4 minutes.

About an hour later and after several private talks with Democrats Jeff Flake came out and announced he would only vote for Brett Kavanaugh if an investigation continued on the man for another week.

This is exactly what Democrats were hoping for.

Longtime GOP consultant Ed Rollins commented on Flake’s cowardice.

“Lou Dobbs: They were intimidating Jeff Flake. They got him in a small room outside the hearing room and they were all piled in there.

Ed Rollins: He will go down as one of the great turncoats and cowards in the political history of the US Senate based on this thing. And I hope he does the right thing at the end of the day after having demanded this hearing.

Ed was being nice.

A chain is only as strong as its weakest link. Among the Republicans on the Senate Judiciary Committee, Flake is the weakest link and the Liberals/Democrats knew it.

Our local Phoenix channel noted that Judge Kavanaugh has already undergone six FBI investigations, each time he has been selected for another position, and they quote an FBI source as saying that he doubts they’ve going to find anything this time, either.

There have been stories in the past year or two about flake being tight with obama, at one point shortly after the election they would talk daily. Turncoat is putting it mildly.

That’s just the trouble though isn’t it? The guy has nothing to lose as far as the Republican Party is concerned. He doesn’t have to worry about re-election etc.
On the other hand, he stands to make vast amounts of money as a Trump hating “Republican” from vile creatures like George Soros, Tom Steyer, as a “consultant” on CNN, MSNBC, writing anti-Trump articles in the New York Times, WaPo etc. From a purely, bloody minded point of view, he is doing exactly the right thing for his pockets, bank balance and personal comfort.

I hope he doesn’t have any political aspirations within the United States.

Well them two screaming hussies that cornered him in the US Senate elevator certainly know a pu**y when they saw one.
Why are deranged women routinely allowed access to EVERYWHERE in the US Senate?
Just this week, Grassley’ office was easily taken over by a bunch of lunatics without any hindrance whatsoever.

And the new one they are about to elect from here is a female version of him. The GOP-e runs the state ruthlessly. We have had two conservative governors removed from office. Only Rino’s need apply.

I think this one maybe a roll of the dice. We’ll just have to wait and see.

-Except as the pasr year has shown us the Fan Belt Inspectors have been corrupted by the Dims. The Dims will be coming up with a parade of NEW victims of Brett in a never ending line to keep the nomination open as long as the Repugs keep letting them or until the Repugs cry Chu Hoi and give up Brett.....

I know I’m right about the Dems, but I hope I’m wrong about the Repugs. The Turtle gas been stellar about getting the Judicable nominees through so far...we’ll see by Friday.

VIDEO: 28 Sept: Fox News: Tucker Carlson: Jeff Flake Is ‘Ringmaster of the Partisan Circus’ After Calling for Kavanaugh FBI Probe
Flake (R-Ariz.) had voted to send Kavanaugh’s Supreme Court nomination to the full Senate.

He said before the vote, in agreement with Democrats, that he’d be calling for a one-week delay to allow the FBI to investigate the sexual misconduct claims against the nominee...
“Jeff Flake crumbled,” Carlson said, noting that Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) commended Flake for rising above “the partisan circus on display.”...

“In Washington, when they congratulate you on leaving the partisan circus, chances are you are now the ringmaster of the partisan circus. And of course Jeff Flake is exactly that,” Carlson added...

Carlson said that the impending FBI investigation into Judge Kavanaugh does not mean much.
“If you’re looking for truth, this would be an utterly pointless exercise,” he said.

The two skanks that made poor ole Jeff shit his pants, crow over their victory. It turns out they are professional arnachists bought and paid for by George Soros. What is Jeff Sessions doing about all this sedition going on?

Well, he made sure a quorum was present at that committee meeting—no mass walkout leading to a potential discharge petition.
And having the defenders of the Judge completely on the record is not such a bad thing.
Ruthie is not looking so well nowadays—her presence on Oct. 1 is suspect.

Flake is a dirt bag. He was always going to vote no.

My calls to his office in DC went to voice mail which was full. I left two messages in Phoenix encouraging him to disregard the allegations primarily because of the risk of memory contamination and corruption. I guess I was hopeful that he would do the right thing, all the while knowing that he lacked the right stuff.

When our choice is RINO vs Dem; we end up with a RINO.
That may take place in November.
