On Tuesday, Sen. Jeff Flake, often an outspoken critic of President Donald Trump, announced he would not seek re-election for the Senate in 2018. As Sen. Jeff Flake made his stunning announcement on Tuesday that he will be retiring from the Senate, Jay Heiler, a Treasurer of the Arizona Board of Regents, made it clear that he's leaning toward running for the soon-to-be-vacant congressional seat and that he recently spoke with former White House chief strategist Steve Bannon about jumping into the 2018 midterm election battle.
These were the plagues Sen. Jeff Flake cursed in his floor speech Tuesday night, announcing he would not seek a second term in the U.S. Senate. Flake is correct to condemn these growing problems and to accuse President Trump of trampling on decency, civility, stability, and the separation of powers.
