I have always suspected that they knew there were leakers and Flynn set himself up to take a fall which would embolden the leakers so they find more of them...My guess he’s still advising Trump...it takes expertise and finese to drain a ugly swamp is all I am saying...
My eyebrow went up when Trump turned loose of Flynn so easily on pretty thin assertions. Trump simply does not do things frivolously or unconsidered. His perceptions are not molded in standard DC or Northeast patterns, though, so his calculated reactions are unfathomable to the regular pols and the oligarchy. They will be caught wrong footed every time.
