To be fair Trump obviously told him to talk to them about it. Flynn is just a scapegoat.  Your homey isn't going to talk to your side piece without talking to you first.  This is the second person to leave because of ties to Russia.

Evidently he doesn't want to talk about it on Twitter.  Probably at the directive of the Donald, since that's how he gets most of his information anyway.

He resigned because he lied to his boss. The earth shattering thing here is that he was actually forced to resign. Any other admin would have circled the wagons. Refreshing isn't it.

Don't even try Swake.  People would rather follow this cheeto Jesus than admit they got duped by a guy who said he was going to drain the swamp and actually filled it.  People are gullible and lazy.

And the point I was actually talking about was Swake insinuation that Trump is selling access at Mar A Lago. Anybody ever consider it is literally more expensive to maintain the security in that place now?

But no, Swake IMMEDIATELY assumes that Trump is selling access, never mind the fact that people were paying $100k a year prior to his presidency, as if that was paltry in comparison.

And forget the fact that we live in a society where everyone is walking around with a camera/computer/email/do it all in their pockets 24/7 and the guy that has the "football" is a real person that actually walks the same earth we do. And sometimes actually comes into contact with other human beings.

That's what I'm talking about.

It's like getting a selfie with the President at the White House. And being shocked that the President is at the White House.

And you're sure of this...how exactly?  Clairvoyance?   :D

He was forced to resign?  They knew about all of this a month ago. So if everybody gets selfies with the nuclear football where are the thousands of them?

Only if the president was charging a couple of hundred grand to enter the White House and he pocketed the money.

When he became president suddenly his fee to join went from 100k to 200k and now he's spending every weekend there and having state dinners in the restaurant while it is open to the public. This is ok with you? This is money for access that is going straight to Trump's pocket.

As for that expensive security when he is there, that is handled by Secret Service agents and is paid for by you and me. Just like we are paying for increased security at Trump Tower since his wife and child are still living there. Tell me, does he charge the US Government for his own room when he is there? I bet he does. He charged his campaign for his office space at Trump Tower during the campaign.

Three things. Does #45 also still have his own private security which was at odds with the SS? Are we still paying for them? And, its likely that the nuclear football pic was not the real deal. We have several Air Force One clones to deceive and distract. I doubt we have only one human with the football. And that would indeed make the golden boy chuckle. To get paid for fake pics.

Access apparently = selfies with chubby guys now a days.

As if power and influence hadn't been peddled for decades. You (swake) are furious at the wrong actors. Trump is just one in a long line of people peddling influence. Hell, one of the biggest was just shut down for not having any more leverage. You are furious at a person, when the problem is so much bigger and so much more complicated than party affiliation.

I don't think you know how ridiculous you sound deflecting his behavior by saying, "everybody does it!" You got conned dude. Lots of people refused to see him for what he is.

Also, there's his "response" to the Flynn 'resignation'.

If there really was as much voter fraud as this lying piece of trash says, let's have a do-over election - and get it fair this time....

I don't share my thoughts because I think it will change the minds of people who think differently.  I share my thoughts to show the people who already think like me that they are not alone.

The chubby guy was the one that paid the $200k to Trump to be in the restaurant during a state dinner.

Erfalf,

How about a bet. Trump claims there were 5 million fake votes. My real guess is they will never prove anything close to even 100 fake votes but let's make this painful for you. I'll bet you $1,000 they never prove even 500,000 fake votes. That's 1/10 of his stupid claim. You up for that? Trump and his minions say they have proof but never seem to release it. I'm betting they can't even prove 1/10th of what Trump claims.

If you can't make that bet then you have to admit Trump is a lying scumbag who is undermining our Republic.
