Trump's Ultimate Troll Move Would Send D.C. Leftists Into Meltdown

[PJ] Last week, I wrote about how Trump’s pick of Mike Waltz for UN ambassador was the ultimate trolling of the left. I even suggested that Trump could up the ante by nominating Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn to replace Waltz. Flynn, a seasoned intel veteran, was one of the earliest and most high-profile victims of the Democrats’ Russia hoax. Whether Trump goes that route remains to be seen, but it would be a power play.

And it looks like Flynn is on board.

During an interview on "The Benny Show," with Benny Johnson, Flynn declared he’s prepared to return to the role of national security advisor under President Trump—if called upon.

Flynn, who briefly held the post at the start of Trump’s first term before being railroaded by the Deep State, left little doubt about his willingness to serve again.

"I am ready to serve," Flynn said, referencing a post he made on social media that stirred speculation about his return. "The first question—yes. The second question—no," he added, confirming that while he hasn’t been contacted yet by Trump directly, his hat is firmly in the ring.

"I’ve been watching everything, listening, and observing intensely," Flynn explained. "We are in a place where we cannot afford to have, as Trump likes to say, unforced errors. We cannot afford to drop a glass ball right now."

Flynn emphasized that despite not being in government anymore, he has never stopped serving the country. "I’m serving now, Benny. I serve in just a different way... I’ve been engaging people in government. I’m still out doing stuff," he said. "That’s my message to every American: How are you serving this country?"

#1 for you pro-Flynn types, please look up "Flynn Intel Group" which Flynn founded with his pal Stanley McChrystal

Did this w/o registering under Foreign Agent Registration Act.

Granted that FARA is routinely violated.
Granted that he registered retroactively.
Granted that he didn't make that much money (certainly less than Hunter Biden).
Granted that prior to this he served honorably.

Still it smells.

#2 FARA would not apply to 'walk in' reporting or clandestine agents of the Federal Gov.

Not saying he was, not saying he was not.

#3 if he was being clandestine, he was pretty open about it

for example, he attended an event in Dec 2015 with Jill Stein and Vladimir Putin (in fact at the same dining table with them)

of course that could have been part of the plan I suppose

#4 "Clandestine" might apply to his sponsoring agency.

#5 Subtle B, but not a lot! I get that in DC you can hardly take a step without getting stuff on your shoe, but the Turkish connection is troubling on several levels. Still, he has a lot of payback to offload and that would be delicious to watch!

#6 Lots of places to try and do business....and he picks (or was instructed to pick) Turkey? No, I do not believe in coincidences either.

The smell of a set up ?

#7 QFT: McChrystal asked his friend Flynn to become his director of intelligence. Their collaboration in Iraq had severely crippled Al Qaeda.

#8 The Hill: Did the FBI target Michael Flynn to protect Obama’s policies, not national security?

#9 How is trolling the left in and of itself a virtue? Do what's right. It doesn't matter if the other side likes it or not.
