Statement from Trump lawyer Ty Cobb …

“Today, Michael Flynn, a former National Security Advisor at the White House for 25 days during the Trump Administration, and a former Obama administration official, entered a guilty plea to a single count of making a false statement to the FBI.

“The false statements involved mirror the false statements to White House officials which resulted in his resignation in February of this year. Nothing about the guilty plea or the charge implicates anyone other than Mr. Flynn. The conclusion of this phase of the Special Counsel’s work demonstrates again that the Special Counsel is moving with all deliberate speed and clears the way for a prompt and reasonable conclusion.”

A mere TWENTY FIVE DAYS people, Flynn don't know nuthin!!

[George II]

5. But a top trump adviser for almost two years.

[Leghorn21]

[Golden Raisin]

10. "25 days during the Trump Administration"

and ALL that time before and during the campaign as an intimate of the inner circle, prominent adviser and front-man rallier of the crowds inciting them with his chants of, "Lock her up!" But yeah --- tell us it was only 25 days.

[George II]

15. That scumbag had to throw in the "Obama administration" trash.

[tammywammy]

19. It's convenient to leave out that Obama fired him and warned Trump against hiring him. n/t

[George II]

23. Exactly. Obama fired him so trump hired him for his campaign, used Flynn to...

...introduce him at the convention, then hired him as National Security adviser. But it's Obama's fault!

They have no shame, no ethics, and no morals.

[LudwigPastorius]

17. This is known as "whistling past the graveyard".

22. Come on, the sole purpose of this letter was to placate the orange one

'former Obama administration official' and 'clears the way for a prompt and reasonable conclusion', was all the asshole really needed to read.
