If Jeff Flake was the conscientious patriot he claims to be, he would run as an independent. Most likely result is that he tosses the race to the Democrat. Which would actually do more to hold Trump accountable than impassioned speeches on the Senate floor.
If you are a Republican like Flake or Corker or McCain, you owe it to your country to support Democratic oversight in Congress of this White House. If any of the mini-Trumps win the Arizona and Tennessee Senate seats, that makes the Senate objectively worse.
John Cole says it better.
So does Charlie Pierce.
