Mike Flynn

Hilarious to hear Mike Pence say *now* that Mike Flynn is "an American patriot" and that he was wrongly accused of lying and that he would be happy to see him back in the Trump administration. This, after he earlier accused Flynn of lying to him and said that Trump was right to fire him. This is all on video, of course, but the Trump cult members will believe whatever Pence and Trump say, despite any facts.

And we aren't even mentioning the fact that Mike Flynn was a paid agent of the Turkish government, something that he did not disclose as is required by law, but kept secret (The Trump team's first ethics scandal).

And we also aren't recalling either the fact that he hatched a plot to kidnap a Turkish cleric, Fethullah Gülen, residing in the US, and bypassing US law to send him back to Turkey (Ex-CIA Director: Mike Flynn and Turkish Officials Discussed Removal of Erdogan Foe From U.S. ).

Yeah, let's hire him back to the White House - what could go wrong? At least he'll fit in with the other grifters there.

Why has Trump so consistently, since Flynn was first arrested, worked to have him let off the hook, first trying to coerce James Comey to "let Flynn go" and then later dangling a pardon for him, and finally getting his sycophant A.G. to free him? Many think it's because of some damaging information Flynn has against Trump that Trump can't let see the light of day.
