Retiring Sen. Jeff Flake (R-Ariz.) said Sunday that he doesn't think he will run for president in 2020, but added that he believes somebody from the GOP needs to challenge President Trump.
Flake, a frequent Trump critic, said on CNN's "State of the Union" that somebody needs to run "to remind Republicans what it means to be conservative, what being a conservative really means and what it means to be decent."
"I think the future of the party is with people with an optimistic vision moving ahead. I don’t think that will be me. I think there are better candidates out there. But somebody needs to run," he added.
