It would seem to me that the further into the Trump
presidency we get, the more vocal our RINO members of ‘The Swamp’ become in
their effort to assist the Democrats in trying to undermine our duly elected president. They continue to ratchet up their incendiary
rhetoric about what a danger Trump has become to represent to the party, the
nation and even to the world. There
seems to be little difference between what we’re now hearing from them and what
we’ve been hearing from their Democrat colleagues for some time now. Our cast of RINOs seem to take great offense
to the fact that President Trump has been calling them out on such things as
their promising for seven years to “repeal and replace’ Obamacare and yet when
they have the opportunity to do just that, they don’t. And then there’s their very obvious
reluctance to secure the southern border and to construct the much needed
border wall. These RINOs are no
different than the Democrats.
Which, I guess, brings me to Jeff Flake, RINO from
Arizona, who has made the claim, in a recently released excerpt from his
upcoming book, that his party is in “denial” about President Donald Trump. Flake argued that the Republican Party helped
to create the Trump movement and now is in complete denial over the “chaos” the
Trump presidency has created in his new book “Conscience of a Conservative,”
which was featured in Politico. While
Flake may view himself as being a “conservative” his actions speak much louder
than his words, and his actions make it very clear that he is anything but a
conservative. And it would seem that the
only ones in “denial” are those like Flake who seem to be interested in nothing
more than to lie to the American people, and those who tend to vote Republican
are getting pretty fed up with these establishment politicians, like Flake, who
tend to ignore the wishes of those whom they work for.
It’s in this pathetic little work of fiction that
Flake writes, “It was we conservatives who rightly and robustly asserted our
constitutional prerogatives as a co-equal branch of government when a Democrat
was in the White House but who, despite solemn vows to do the same in the event
of a Trump presidency, have maintained an unnerving silence as instability has
ensued.” And he goes on to write, “To
carry on in the spring of 2017 as if what was happening was anything
approaching normalcy required a determined suspension of critical faculties.
And tremendous powers of denial.” Flake
explained that he understood why Republicans were ignoring the issues the Trump
presidency created, saying he has done the same thing. He wrote, “I’ve been
sympathetic to this impulse to denial, as one doesn’t ever want to believe that
the government of the United States has been made dysfunctional at the highest
levels, especially by the actions of one’s own party.” What hypocritical pabulum.
Flake said, “For a conservative, that’s an awfully
bitter pill to swallow.” Let’s be honest
here, this guy is nowhere near to being a conservative, he only likes to
pretend he’s a conservative whenever he appears on television. Anyway, he went on to say that one of the few
ways to stop a way-ward president is through Congress before calling on his
fellow congressmen to acts as the “checks and balances” against some of Trump’s
demands. He said, “As the first branch
of government (Article I), the Congress was designed expressly to assert itself
at just such moments. It is what we talk about when we talk about ‘checks and
balances.’ Too often, we observe the unfolding drama along with the rest of the
country, passively, all but saying, ‘Someone should do something!’ without
seeming to realize that that someone is us.”
Does he actually hear the crap coming out of his mouth? Flake is up for re-election in 2018 and God
willing he won’t be showing back up in January 2019.
So the good people of Arizona will soon have the
opportunity to be sending off to Washington two new senators, and wouldn’t it
be great if, for a change, both of them turned out to be bona fide
conservatives instead of pathetic RINOs!
Will they take full advantage of it?
Although I see little reason for hope since it was just last year that
they thought it appropriate to once again send John McCain back to the
Senate. But it would seem that God has
since intervened and will be removing McCain by another means. But, the people there will have a chance to
redeem themselves by electing a suitable ‘conservative’ replacement for Flake, one
who will hopefully make good on the promises he, or she, makes. This guy, Flake, has been living off the
taxpayers since 2003, first serving the House and then gaining a promotion for
himself to the Senate in 2012. So I fear
the chances may be rather slim that the people of Arizona will finally come to
their senses and send this dishonest RINO packing.
Odd that we should be hearing complaints about a
dysfunctional government coming from one of those most responsible for making
it so. I would love nothing better than
to see President Trump throw his weight behind whomever it might be that faces
Flake in a primary and then to proceed to make an example out of him. Flake should be made the poster-boy when it
comes to all of the promises made by his fellow RINOs that were then broken as
soon as the election was over. Because
when you get right down to it, it sounds like he is talking more about our many
RINOs in Congress not making good on all those many promises they made when
they had a Democrat as president. Flake,
like every other RINO that we’re forced to contend with, is a loser. The people of Arizona owe the country an
apology for repeatedly sending McCain off to Washington and then compounding
that act of stupidity by electing Flake.
Both are nothing more than modern day Benedict Arnold's.
Flake voted against Obummer simply because it was
easy and he could bolster his record as fighting Obummer's liberal/progressive
agenda. Remember, he's only been in the
Senate for 5 years, all under Obummer.
He was an early NeverTrumper who has supported mass immigration, both
legal and illegal. Flake is the
personification of all that's wrong with Washington. "Conservatives"
like Flake are the problem. We the
People created the Trump movement, not go-along-to-get-along politicians like
Flake, Rubio, McCain and Graham, to name just a few, who do whatever the
spineless McConnell tells them to, while surrendering any claims to being
defenders of the Constitution.
Everything Obummer did could have been stopped but instead, the
Republicans became silent and indifferent enablers who are now terrified that
they might be rightfully identified for what they've allowed to happen to our
Republic. Flake and his ilk should be
dissatisfied with Mr. Trump, they’re why we elected him.
I think it’s safe to say that most Republican voters
have had more than enough of the NeverTrump wing of their party. They lost, and lost overwhelmingly. If they cannot accept the decision of the
Republican voters or at least remain silent, they have no business being in our
party. They just need to be honest and
become Democrats. Going after Trump is going after those who voted for him. Any
Republican who believes that that is a winning strategy will find out how far
it goes in the primaries when Trump voters throw them all out. We have had it with this garbage. If Flake wants to do the work of a Democrat,
get out of the party and become one.
After all, the stock market is up, business revenue is up, wages are up,
Illegal immigration is on the way down, and consumer confidence is up. Thank you President Trump! Meanwhile, healthcare reform appears dead,
tax cuts have not yet been acted upon and border wall funding is
minuscule. Thank you congressional
Republicans!
Let’s face it, the Republicans did little more than
roll over and play dead for the entire eight years that we had to tolerate
Obummer being in the White House. All we
got was lip service. And now they want
to stand in opposition to Trump, a guy who’s a member of their own team? Flake and the many other RINOs were only too
happy to throw their support behind Hitlery.
Even after the base pretty much repudiated the ‘Establishment’ types in
the primaries because they could not be trusted. So here's hoping Trump supporters can defeat
Flake in 2018. His weak poll numbers are
only going to get weaker. And these
RINOs need to have their collective head examined if they think they can bring
our President down and then pick up all the pieces he pulled together for his victory. And if they do manage to bring down our
President the Republican Party is through.
They will never again win another presidency and become the permanent
minority party. Which may be what
they’re really after.
RINOs like Flake represent a very clear and present
danger to this country. All they’re
doing, and have been doing since election night, is to throw a tantrum because
it turns out that we can have immigration enforcement without comprehensive
amnesty. They kept dangling enforcement
so they could double the number of illegal immigrants per year to 2 million and
to legalize those already here. Sorry,
we got enforcement without letting you flood the country with cheap labor and
letting you destroy the language and culture.
Yet they keep babbling on about “our broken immigration system” blah,
blah, “comprehensive immigration reform,” blah, blah, “path to citizenship,”
blah, blah, “illegals are better than American citizens,” blah, blah, and “xenophobia,
nativism, and racism.” There are a lot
of Senators who don't realize how much trouble they may be in. And all the donor money in the world won't
make up for a lack of votes. Just ask
Hitlery if it worked for her.
Flake has managed to progress from being just your
average run-of-the-mill backbencher to being one of the more prominent back
biters in Congress. Flake has literally
never done anything throughout his entire political career. He opposes everything conservatives
want. He's pro-choice, pro-open borders,
pro-higher taxes, and against school vouchers.
I mean who is this guy to call for Congress to block the President from
his own party? Flake and his RINO
cohorts are telling America to F- off.
So the time has come to remove as many of them from office as we can and
replace them with those who love their country.
So because the Republicans can get nothing done in the Senate, it’s
somehow the fault of the President? This
is nonsense and he knows it. With the
election of President Trump the Republicans were handed an opportunity to do
the right thing and yet they still can't get it together. It’s a shame and not what the American people
voted for.
America was built with hard work, sweat, and a lot of blood. The two major parties are embarrassing our country. The Democrats by pushing their social agenda issues, and the Republicans constantly afraid of offending the Far Left. The Republican old school types have grown accustomed to kneeling in front of their Democrat betters and receiving their abuse and liking it. Meanwhile, Trump has fought back and I look forward to watching Trump endorse those candidates who choose to run against incumbent RINOs like Flake. “Make America Great Again” is happening and ‘The Establishment’, both right and left, just can’t handle it. None of them thought that President Trump had a snowball’s chance in Hell of beating Hitlery, and nine months later they are still unable to accept it. So now we see the RINOs teaming up with the Democrats in what has become a less than covert effort to topple a duly elected president. And we the people must make it known that this is simply unacceptable.
