Jeff Flake: I’ll Oppose Trump When ‘He’s Wrong’

‘I think he has been wrong on free trade’

EXCERPT:

FLAKE: "I have departed from the President in terms of Russia sanctions. I have supported him when he's done things like named Neil Gorsuch to the Supreme Court or has tackled regulations. So I will agree with this president when I think he's right and oppose him when I think he's wrong. I think he has been wrong on free trade, on his talk about NAFTA in the campaign, talking about getting rid of it, I'm glad that that's moved to renegotiation. I hope we simply modernize it and move ahead. But like any Republican or Democratic president, myself — and I suppose other senators — will keep our franchise and not be a rubber stamp."
