Michael Flynn: Trump's national security adviser quits

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-38965557

Flynn lied and he pays the penalty, and Trump is left looking stupid again.

"Donald Trump never does anything small. If his administration is going to have a political crisis, why waste any time?" :-)

[mikey4444]

OG....But its crisis followed by yet more crisis. When are people finally going to realise that this man is just not capable of running a country ?

[Peter Pedant]

for talking to the Russians

FLynn view is that as foreign policy adviser - he has to speak to foreigners such as Putin - and that would be obviously in this case about Obama's measures/sanctions

Is it becoming obvious that the real winners from the American ELection are the Russians - or is that Beeb-speak

Hey why dont they remake The Manchurian Candidate again ?

[Peter Pedant]

// going to realise that this man is just not capable of running a country ?//

yeah Trump on tel
" I'll tell you whaaat ! The almighty dollar is gonna be replaced folks by the Russian Rouble - my frenz in Russia are quite OK with this Mike Flynn asked them a few weeks ago, Then y'all can invest direct in St Petersburg Trump Industries folks - a chance in the century! Let us make America Great again. Let it all hang out as Ivanka might say My great wife whose curtain range has just come out ....."

Bingo! It was only a matter of time, once this story broke.
He probably broke the law. Lying to Pence was probably the least of his sins.

[mikey4444]

Ichy....was it a lie or was it an "alternative fact" ?

[ichkeria]

One fact I know is that Flynn was never a suitable candidate for that office. Mind you, he's not the only one over there in that position just now ...

[Samjenko]

Putting 2 probably's in one post is probably a bit desperate.

[ichkeria]

This could actually bring Trump down - not even I was betting on that timescale!

[Zacs-Master]

Not heard anything about these new travel bans either have we. America is still snoring at the moment so still time.

[ichkeria]

America certainly needs to wake up ...

[mikey4444]

Trump is running around like a headless chicken. A good businessman should know that you can't run a company by crisis-management.....a lesson that he still hasn't learned.

[Zacs-Master]

They certainly do Stanley. They certainly do. Hm.

[jim360]

Holding Trump and his administration to account whenever they make another cock-up (which is every day, at least once, almost without fail so far) is just a nasty witch-hunt.

Perhaps it would be safer to consolidate all the "Trump did another thing obviously and indefensibly wrong" posts in to one easily manageable super foul-up post, say once a week, and just keep a note of the obvious and pathetic howlers until then.

[ichkeria]

What that article also reflects rather starkly is the easy ride, in fact, which Trump and his administration has to date had from the press generally.

[mikey4444]

Jim... a surprising post from you !

Holding Trump to account is not a witch hunt. If he wants to avoid any further trouble, then perhaps he should look to his own management skills.

[EDDIE51]

Looking stupid 'again' !
When did he not look stupid?

[jim360]

Guess I should have made my biting satire more obvious.

[Jackdaw33]

He still has more brains and a better hairstyle than Fatboy Kim.

[ummmm]

It was obvious, Jim :-)
