‘It’s Very Unfair’ Trump Says
Just days after Michael Flynn pleaded guilty to lying to the FBI President Donald Trump once again defended his fired, former National Security Advisor, saying he feels bad for him and accused Hillary Clinton, without proof, of also lying to the FBI. There is no publicly recorded substance that Clinton has ever lied to the FBI.
“I feel badly for General Flynn,” Trump told reporters Monday morning before heading out to Utah. “Hillary Clinton lied many times to the FBI and nothing happened to her,” he claimed. “She lied many times, nothing happened to her. Flynn lied and they ruined his life. It’s very unfair.”
Trump went on to claim, apparently falsely, that Clinton lied on the July 4 weekend last year, when she spoke with the FBI about their investigation into her emails.
Trump appears to be creating the claim Clinton lied in order to make Flynn appear as a victim, something he certainly is not.Â
Some journalists are suggesting Trump may be getting ready to pardon Flynn.Â
