“Flake to Turkey” Is a Joke That Writes Itself
Failed Republican Jeff Flake has completed his transition to the dark side: Joe Biden has thrown him a bone in the form of an ambassadorship for his loyal service to the Democratic Party.
President Joe Biden is nominating former Republican Sen. Jeff Flake of Arizona as his ambassador to Turkey, whose alliance with the U.S. has in recent years been marked by major disagreements on key foreign policy issues.
“I am honored and humbled by the trust President Biden has placed in me with this ambassadorial nomination,” Flake wrote in a post on Medium.
