All of this apologizing by Flynn to Pence looks staged to distract

...from what Flynn actually discussed with the Russians.

Moreover, the fact that Flynn still has his job is suspicious. What did he discuss with Trump on AFOne today?

Does he have something on Trump? Did Trump authorize the contacts with the Russians during the campaign and afterward?

He may well lose his job, but there's much too much circling of the wagons here. This isn't over, by a long shot.

to keep us off of what's really going on behind the scenes.

Their doctrine is to keep us distracted to the greatest extent possible.

Flynn says he lied to Pence then Pence looks like he didn't know anything. Which I think is a lie. Pence knew.

...when he should be pushing Flynn away.

And, yes, it suggests that Flynn has something on him.
