Republican Sen. Jeff Flake gets slammed in raucous town hall meeting

Sen. Jeff Flake encountered a raucous audience at a town hall meeting in Mesa, Arizona, on Thursday night.

Constituents peppered the Republican lawmaker with questions about President Donald Trump's actions in office, and his broader agenda on climate change, the president's taxes, the Supreme Court and Planned Parenthood.

Much like other GOP town halls held since Trump assumed the Oval Office, attendees railed against Flake, many of whom accused him of being a rubber stamp for Trump. Flake, like Reps. Jason Chaffetz, Mike Coffman, and Sen. Mitch McConnell before him, attempted to answer the audience's concerns, though most explanations drew shouts and boos from the crowd.

It's part of the resistance thing. Sessions' town hall was on the calendar.

Sorry, yes. Brain glitch - considering his name was right in front of me when I typed that.

If it's anything like here in Iowa, they travel from town to town, astroturf trying to look like real constituency.
