" Oh, pretty soon, the whining will reach a pitch that can be heard only by dogs on Mars. It seems that Donald Trump will be holding a big Ship Out The Brown People wingding in Arizona on Saturday. (How can I so unfairly characterize Mr. Trump&amp;#039;s big event? Well, his co-star will be sociopathic nutbag Joe Arpaio.) Apparently, demand is exceeding supply, seating-wise, and this is giving the whim-whams to Republicans who are not themselves, as Spy indelibly wrote, short-fingered vulgarians.  In an interview with The Washington Post on Thursday, Flake said both Trump and Arpaio&amp;#039;s inflammatory rhetoric about immigrants and about President Obama&amp;#039;s place of birth are not indicative of the Republican Party&amp;#039;s values. The event at the Arizona Biltmore in Phoenix is hosted by the Republican Party of Maricopa County, but Flake said he had called the party chairman to ask him not to sponsor the event. &amp;quot;As an elected official and as a Republican, I&amp;#039;m not excited about this, to say the least,&amp;quot; Flake said. &amp;quot;I don&amp;#039;t think that [Trump&amp;#039;s] views are reflective of the party, particularly in Arizona, a border state.&amp;quot;  And, apparently, the Maricopa County Republicans told a sitting U.S. Senate to go whistle. They want to hear from Trump and Arpaio. My experience leaves me decidedly unsympathetic with Flake&amp;#039;s unhappiness. Presumably, he was in Tampa in 2012 when the Arizona GOP made a point of finding Arpaio a place where he could speak. (It was a zoo, and I&amp;#039;ve already made all the jokes so calm down.) Presumably, Flake was in Tampa in 2012 when the following passage was adopted within the Republican party platform:  The pending Department of Justice lawsuits against Arizona, Alabama, South Carolina, and Utah must be dismissed immediately. The double-layered fencing on the border that was enacted by Congress in 2006, but never completed, must finally be built... Federal funding should be denied to sanctuary cities that violate federal law... and federal funding should be denied to universities that provide instate tuition rates to illegal aliens....  (To be completely fair to Flake, he did give away the $1000 that a white-supremacist donated to his campaign just as soon as he heard that Dylann Roof had shot up bible study in Charleston.) There is nothing more tiresome than respectable Republicans who go around moaning about Donald Trump now and pretend that they don&amp;#039;t know how all this ever happened to their party, who pretend that their long-fingered vulgarianism hasn&amp;#039;t depended vitally on short-fingered vulgarianism for four decades. This is how the Republicans ended up not only with Trump, but with Ben Carson, and Rick Santorum and almost all the others. Get used to hearing his argument hereabouts. It&amp;#039;s not going anywhere. he pending Department of Justice lawsuits against Arizona, Alabama, South Carolina, and Utah must be dismissed immediately. The double-layered fencing on the border that was enacted by Congress in 2006, but never completed, must finally be built.
