I had to fire General Flynn because he lied to the Vice President and the FBI.
So you asked Comey to let it go after he committed that crime. Seems strange. A little strange that you fired Comey after he didn't let the man you knew had committed this crime go, too.

Also seems strange that you kept in touch with Flynn for months after he committed his crime.

Thanks for clearing that up, Mr President, we'll be in touch

That’s what he tweeted. Which is interesting given that Comey said Flynn was truthful. Something else is going on, it seems.

He didn’t ask Comey to let it go. He told Comey he wished he could let it go.

He wished Comey could let the crime of lying to the FBI go

OK

It also means that if Trump knew Flynn had lied to the FBI, then Flynn never lied to Pence. They all knew exactly what Flynn had been doing, and all decided to lie about it.

Testimony I read referred to Flynn's false statements. Where are you getting this nonsense?

So Trump admits he knew Flynn lied to the FBI, then pressured Comey to let it go?

There’s your obstruction of justice.

I said earlier that if Trump tweeted about this, it would be very dumb, so he probably would. And that he should say what was in his heart.

I absolutely had no idea he would frick it up so incredibly

There is already precedent that Trump’s Tweets can be used in court.

Guess the White House council is working today.

I’ve never said “we’ve got him”.

But this time? Yeah. We’ve got him.

Someone will probably bait him into stating it even more clearly and he will state that he knew Flynn lied to the FBI. But the tweet is pretty clear in that he stated he knew.

There are a number of issues Mueller would have to resolve if there is to be any obstruction of justice case. One of them—and it’s not by any means the only one—is state of mind on Trump’s part.

One component of a state of mind inquiry is what precisely the President knew about Flynn’s legal jeopardy.

Trump just answered that question.

I’m sure a lawyer from WH Council is crafting a response that Trump’s tweet really means something else right now.
