'''Jeffrey Lane Flake''' (born December 31, 1962) is a [[globalist]] and [[RINO]] who served as a [[United States Senator]] from [[Arizona]], winning election to the Senate in 2012, after serving as a [[United States Representative]] from 2001 until 2013. After repeatedly opposing [[Donald Trump]] throughout the presidential campaign and even after he was elected president, Flake became unelectable and at an age of only 54 Flake announced his retirement from the U.S. Senate rather than lose in a landslide for re-election.

Flake courted support by the [[Koch brothers]] who, like Flake, are very [[anti-Trump]].  However, apparently, the Kochs decided to cut their own losses by declining to fund futile efforts to re-elect Flake.
