I wonder if Trump's administration can break Nixon's record:

Why is Ronnie and Georgy so Criminal?

 

[HunterSdVa29]

This is all good and well but the contention was not only that Russia interfered with our election but that Trump colluded with them.

The first point is a non starter. .. everybody knows Trump won fair and square because he put the work in the rust belt and Hillary was a shit candidate. Obama voters did not come out for her simple as that.

The second part of the equation, Trump collusion, has yet to even be alleged. Maybe it will be in the future but as of now we just have perjury which every unbiased person knows is just a Gotchya technicality. Not to mention Flynn was fired immediately by trump.

We'll see how this progresses but as of now this is a nothing burger. You know how I know? If the investigation ended here at this point... they were unable to find any other wrongdoing, Trump haters would not be the least bit satisfied. For the foaming at the mouth hater crowd, it's Trump impeached or fail. Anything short of that and he's still gonna be in the Oval Office razzing you for the next 3-8 years.

Report is he will testify against Trump and family members. Made the decision in last 24 hours.

Don't get your hopes up. Trump has the power to pardon Flynn, and considering his history with the Obama administration, I don't think it's going to turn out as people would expect.

andddd....nothing will come of this as I've said all along

Wait, what? Something has come of it already. Flynn pleaded guilty.

Are you Mark Lee?

Wait. Trump wanted contacts with the Russians!!!!!!!!!

THIS IS IT!!!!

Contacts with Russians is punishable by death

 

[HomerThompson]

And to think, good guy Obama and Sally Yates tried to save Trump from all of this. Even though Trump had so much irrational hate for Obama, Barry still tried to help.

Thanks Obama.

If Trump directed him, then Trump is the top criminal actor here, not Flynn. No one could save him from himself.

If Flynn’s kid was not involved this would probably be the case.

And there it is

And so, after a convoluted preamble, we arrive at the main body

This is going to be like Saruman trapped in his tower in Isengard, defiant to the end. Hey, at least he still has the keys to the joint. All those pits flooded and machines destroyed? Nothingburger.

You guys may want to wait and hold off on assumptions like this. If Mueller is giving Flynn a plea deal it's likely he has more than just contact with Russians but no details on the content of those conversations.

In other words, you guys may be setting yourselves up for a foot in mouth situation.
