My friend Jason Johnson has a twitter thread that accurately explains Jeff Flake’s problems. So many anti-Trump people are yelling at me this morning saying, “Oh, so his scorecard changed, that’s the problem?” No. The scorecard is a useful metric for just how much he changed. Jason takes the time to look at the votes and you will note that Flake voted for tons of things he once opposed and opposed tons of things he once supported.
