I don't understand why your previous post was directed at Trump rather than Flake? Am I missing something?
We do not elect kings. What goes around comes around.

How could Jeff Flake, who is setting record low polling numbers in Arizona and was therefore humiliatingly forced out of his own Senate seat without even a fight (and who doesn’t have a clue), think about running for office, even a lower one, again? Let’s face it, he’s a Flake!

Do you know why McCain Obamacare? McCain preferred Presidents who don't piss off the people they need to pass legislation. Trump suffers from self inflicted wounds and he deserves it. Is it petty and egotistical? You bet, but if I was deluded, and thought President Trump gave a damn about America instead of his own self interests, I might be angry at Flake too.
Maybe I haven't been paying close enough attention. I've been in agreement with you regarding what an oaf Trump is. Nevertheless, he's the president and is capable of implementing policies that affect our lives.
You sound glad that McCain gave the thumbs down. Sure, he got even with Trump (in McCain's inimitable petty, bitter, vengeful manner), but he did so at the expense of the American people. He could have left a more honorable legacy for himself, but he chose to remain the angry little jerk he's always been. Unforgiveness is not an admirable character trait, especially if you're at the end of your life. Worse still is that his [unending] funeral was peppered with the gospel which is based on forgiveness. Sadly, forgiveness was in short supply from most of the speakers. Instead, getevenwiththemism was pervasive. Sadly, that's what his send-off will be remembered for.
But enough of that. I'm just flummoxed by the incessant focus on Trump's idiocy and zero to little focus on the stiff-necked never-Trumpers who still have a responsibility to
serve the citizens.
