A RINO Sen.
  Is Holding Something Crazy Ransom To Stop  A Trump Policy
  Democrats and anti-Trump Republicans have  united to take down the President's agenda.
  Both of those groups hate President Trump  so much they are willing to put their differences
  aside to oppose him.
  And the worst of the RINO senators just began  holding something crazy ransom to stop one
  of Trump's major policies.
  Outgoing politicians usually do one of two  things, either rush to make an impact based
  on what they were elected to do, or completely  abandon the principles they were elected on.
  Without having to face voters again, it doesn't  matter what they do in their final term in
  office.
  Sen. Jeff Flake of Arizona is the perfect  example of a politician turning on his voters.
  When he was first elected in 2013, he was  seen as one of the most conservative politicians
  running for office, touting a solid record  as a Congressman.
  But as soon as he got a whiff of the U.S.  Senate, he got swamp fever and began voting
  against the interests of his very conservative  constituents.
  And then when the campaign of Donald Trump  came about he made a name for himself in the
  'Never Trump' movement.
  At every occasion possible he tried to take  down Trump and didn't slow down when President
  Trump became President.
  It was when Trump became President that Sen.  Flake chose not to run for re-election, likely
  because of his pro-Trump opponent Kelli Ward  seemingly having the edge on him.
  And it's now that he has chosen not to run  for re-election that his anti-Trump push has
  reached new heights.
  Over the weekend Flake stated that he is going  to block President Trump's judicial nominees
  in order to gain leverage on blocking Trump's  tariff policy.
  Flake is firmly opposed to Trump's "fair  trade" policy and most of his other policies.
  He has called Trump's presidency a "crisis,"  and oftentimes sided with Democrats to fight
  back.
  With his position on the Senate Judiciary  Committee, Flake has a lot of power when it
  comes to judicial nominees.
  It is his committee that issues recommendations  on judicial nominees before they receive a
  confirmation vote.
  And with the committee divided, with Republicans  holding 11 seats to the Democrats' 10, Flake
  has a real chance to fully side with Democrats  and make it virtually impossible for any Trump
  nominee to make their way out of the committee.
  But according to Senate Judiciary Chairman  Chuck Grassley, they are prepared to hold
  out until the administration can find a way  to deal with Flake.
  The Senate's confirmation calendar is overwhelmed  with other executive branch nominees, so they
  can hold out while Flake is dealt with.
  But even if he can't be bargained with in  a fair way, Flake won't be a problem once
  he is replaced in early 2019, making his anti-Trump  threats useless.
  In the meantime, he can continually attack  President Trump, much to the chagrin of Arizona
  voters, who overwhelmingly support President  Donald Trump.
  Are you happy that Sen. Jeff Flake is leaving  office next year?
