He's already officially guilty and a felon. But wait! How about he testify at Shitgibbon's impeachment? Flynn's already done.

If that means he's the star witness in anyone else's trial, we'll hear plenty of testimony from him.

It's unfortunate but he is literally an admitted and convicted liar. Any defendant's lawyers will easily be able to discredit his testimony.

They will say he is lying save his in skin.

He almost seems to be a pathological liar, because he appears to do it even when he doesn't have to.
