This speech sounds like someone who is planning an independent run for president. What a swamp rat.

Name one thing that he brings to the table.

Helps the Democrats. If McMullin had not run, Trump might have won another couple of states (NV and NH).

Never has a person's name reflected the reality of what he is.

LOL! Yeah Flake definitely is one.
I guess it goes with the territory. Another reason for term limits. Most of the senate is just totally full of themselves. A number even make Trump and Obama look humble.

What he brings to the table, is that liberals like me could clearly support him over trump should the dems fails to put forth a credible candidate.

Actually, he'd probably end up helping Trump if he runs as an independent. In 2020, either you're voting for the Democratic nominee, or you're, in one way or another, voting for Trump.
If he wanted to hurt Trump....run against him in the Primary. Sure, he'd lose, but he'd goad Trump into making any number of mistakes attacking the business wing and probably Mormons as well. Flake would also win some states.

Yeah, I have no idea what piece of legislation Flake supports that would make the country a better place.
Trump, on the other hand, has delivered beyond my wildest expectations, and we’re a getting richer because of it.

This is about talking points in The View.
