Flake attacked Trump over the president’s Monday speech where he joked that Democrats were “treasonous” for not applauding good economic news at the State of the Union speech last week.

Flake said, “If we are numb to such words, then we will surely regret that we failed to defend our colleagues in the Congress against such a vile remark. Our silence will also mark the day that we failed to recognize that this conduct in an American president simply is not normal.” (RELATED: Jeff Flake Attacks Trump Again — ‘Flagrant Disregard For Truth And Decency)
However, Shapiro still didn’t approve of Trump’s comments:
And btw, Trump’s comments were ridiculous. But seriously, guys.
