MSNBC: Flake’s Departure Indicates ‘Human Decency’ Wing of GOP Might Soon Be Homeless (VIDEO)

Share:

NBC correspondent Kasie Hunt said Wednesday on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” that the “human decency” wing of the Republican Party might soon be without a home because of voters who feel certain Republicans are not standing up enough for President Donald Trump.

Republican Sen. Jeff Flake (Ariz.) announced on Tuesday that he wasn’t going to seek reelection next year, acknowledging he couldn’t earn the Republican nomination in good conscience because he would have to sacrifice his principles to win in the political climate under Trump. Following the announcement, Flake spoke on the Senate floor for over 15 minutes about his decision not to seek another term, castigating Trump’s behavior, without naming the president directly, as “reckless” and “undignified.”

MSNBC contributor Mike Barnicle said the Republican Party appears to be fracturing right in front of the American people and the “truth seems to be less powerful than the fear of a tweet from the White House.”
