Shocker: Jeff Flake Is Being Totally Insufferable As Government Shutdown Looms
By Matt Vespa
Well, he’s been a pain in the rear end for months. He’s been a thorn in his party’s side during the Brett Kavanaugh Supreme Court nomination.

Jeff Flake (R-AZ) has acted like your atypical Never Trump Republican. He has no base of support, no plan, no future, and so he acts like a bull in a china closet. He’s pretty much acted like a Democrat as he prepares to leave the Senate, which cannot come soon enough.
