    This is just one incident what of the many others, all he is doing is registering a complaint more of a CYA really. Sounds to me like he is saying he will support Trump if he does or says something that will extract Flake from his current rock and hard place. He will look so foolish when Trump does nothing and Flake supports him anyway.
