President Donald Trump should pardon his former national security adviser and campaign aide Michael Flynn, who “has taken the biggest fall,” Flynn’s brother said Tuesday.

In a since-deleted tweet, Joseph Flynn said Trump must get the former Army general off the hook for his December 1 guilty plea stemming from his contacts with the former Russian ambassador. The plea deal is a part of Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation into Russian meddling in the 2016 presidential election and possible coordination with the Trump campaign.

“About time you pardoned General Flynn who has taken the biggest fall for all of you given the illegitimacy of this confessed crime in the wake of all this corruption,” Joseph Flynn tweeted, though the post was deleted after about 15 minutes.

Flynn’s tweet came after Trump posted his own mini-screed on Twitter complaining about Mueller’s probe, among other things.

1. This whole crowd is like the gang that couldn't shoot straight.

What a bunch of amateurs.

Mueller must love the idiocy of these people, starting with Trump himself.

2. Indeed

3. They should lock up the whole sleazy bunch.

One cell, one bed, one hopper, and flush the key down it.

4. " in the wake of all this corruption" ha, ha, ha

6. Brother Flynn just another drinking the Fox piss.

5. Again

A pardon is an admission of guilt.

Accepting a pardon does not get him, it means he admits to the crime but can’t go to jail.

7. Trump seems to know that if he pardons Flynn, Flynn will have to testify at trial.

If it's not in Don's interest, he doesn't really care.

8. Who ARE all these nutty people ? Sheesh. n/t

[duforsure]

9. He may not understand

Could he have stacks of further indictments that are State , which will be used against him that he can't pardon away, and it could trigger the same for him and all of the others including family that'll be up a creek with state indictments too if he tries it? Maybe what his lawyers were so upset about the other day after their meeting? There's more things he also can use against them, and maybe much worse. Could Trump have been in contact with his handlers on his back channel too , and could they be listening to him on it?

10. Not the biggest...just the first

A new year dawns with yet unrevealed indictments...someone actually believes the feds would make a plea deal with Flynn to get...nobody?

11. When Flynn gets done dumping on Trump, a pardon will not

be in the Trump vocabulary.

[WheelWalker]

12. When Flynn gets done dumping on Dotard, Flynn will need more than a pardon...

he'll need a new identity I think.

13. No. Flynn DESERVES to do time for Treason. n/t

14. The American people took the biggest fall and all those responsible shall be held accountable
