White House distances itself from Flynn
In a statement, the White House emphasized that Flynn was fired for making false statements to Trump officials, that he worked for Trump's administration for a short time and that he was a former Obama administration official.
The false statements involved mirror the false statements to White House officials which resulted in his resignation in February of this year, said White House lawyer Ty Cobb. Nothing about the guilty plea or the charge implicates anyone other than Mr. Flynn.
The White House sought to distance itself from Flynn, referring to him as the former National Security Advisor at the White House for 25 days as well as a former Obama administration official.
Flynn was a close adviser to Trump during the campaign and gave a speech at the Republican National Convention in July 2016.

(182,950 posts)Just heard him running errands
Trump fired Flynn which proves....something
He claimed Obama did NOT fire Flynn
Nothing to see here
The charge Flynn plead to would have been more severe if they had anything
No Evans fence of collusion (like a prosecutor would make that public)
Flynn talking to Russians is what he was suppose to be doing - he says it was during the transition and then played a sound bite of Brian Ross actually saying it was during the campaign
He kept going back to the charge not being significant enough to indicate the investigation had anything. THERE'S NOTHING HERE!!

(11,752 posts)That has been Trump's MO since he was a young bigot making his hard way in the world with only the shirt on his back and the 200 million dollars his daddy left him.
He has always had a problem with Black people and especially when one particular Black man was smarter, more powerful, and better than him in every way, President Obama. Trump's goal has always been to prove he was better, but he will never get there and unfortunately, is taking the country down a very dark path aided by spineless and bigoted Republicans.
