It's more admirable when he was actually running for re-election. If you want to know more of Flake, read his book

Posted by: Moviesnob on Oct 24, 15:21 in response to islndr's post I disagree. Admittedly I knew little of Flake prior to...

It's what he said today, just more of it. And he won't be running for president. He's quiting cause he's incredibly unpopular. He was 30 points down vs his challenger - Kelli Ward who is one of the most pro-Trump candidates running. Steve Bannon was at her kick off campaign yesterday - at thats nearly unheard of for an incumbent senator.Ā

I like Jeff Flake, but he had zero chance at re-election. Polling showed him losing to Kelli Ward in the primary and Kyrsten Sinema in the Moviesnob Oct 24, 13:28

He had the courage to speak out against Trump at the cost of his career. This speech will be remembered in US history. {nm} Antibody Oct 24, 13:34

He regularly speaks out against Trump. He wrote a book this year that was exactly about this. This feels like grandstanding. {nm} Moviesnob Oct 24, 13:49

words are cheap. let me know when any of them actually do something to curb his powers {nm} slipping jimmy Oct 24, 13:34

This may well be the "Have you no sense of decency?" turning point. {nm} Antibody Oct 24, 13:47

Wrong. Words inspire, and this was a good speech that will probably lead to action from both politicians and citizens {nm} islndr Oct 24, 14:42

in terms of actual actions, the only thing the GOP Congress actually did today was open two new investigations into Hillary Clinton {nm} slipping jimmy Oct 24, 14:43

So maybe not right this second!, but eventually (hopefully) {nm} islndr Oct 24, 14:51

His actions speak louder than his words IMO. He's admitting defeat here and we should be 100% clear that the short term winner here is Trump Moviesnob Oct 24, 14:54
