This sent the Left into paroxysms of outrage. How could Trump say such a thing in the midst of an ongoing investigation? Isn’t this evidence that Trump wants to engage in a cover-up before all the evidence has been gathered?
It’s not smart for Trump to say this – if he wants to pardon Flynn, he ought to just do so or wait to do so until the time he deems right. But putting this material out there merely makes it look like he’s trying to stymie Flynn, to prevent him from talking with the FBI. With that said, the only charges Flynn has been hit with involve him lying about speaking with the Russian government after the election, and concerning matters that would be within his purview as incoming National Security Advisor. Flynn’s case right now looks more like Scooter Libby than Watergate.
