Flake Expresses Doubts About Trump

Arizona Senator Jeff Flake talks immigration reform and Donald Trump.

Flake recently met with local agriculture leaders and law enforcement officials in Yuma. He tells KAWC's Lou Gum his meeting with Yuma County Sheriff Leon Wilmot touched on border and immigration issues that probably won't be solved during an election year...
