Republicans Flake And Corker Speak Out Against Trump
(Washington, DC) — Two retiring Republican Senators are challenging other GOP senators to take a stand against President Trump. Arizona Senator Jeff Flake announced his decision not to run for re-election yesterday. In an emotional Senate speech aimed at Trump, Flake said he would no longer be silent and complicit about reckless, outrageous and undignified behavior. Also not running for re-election, Tennessee Senator Bob Corker said that Trump’s demeanor is debasing the U.S. Trump fired back this morning on Twitter saying “The reason Flake and Corker dropped out of the Senate race is very simple, they had zero chance of being elected. Now act so hurt & wounded!”
