Liar Squared

If you have read my blog from the beginning, then you know that my father was a career Army officer, who fought as a paratrooper in the Pacific during WWII. So don't even begin to think that I pick on Trump's NSA guy Michael Flynn because he is military.

What he is is a liar. But even more special is that this liar, got defended by a liar. Flynn lied multiple times about his conversations with Russian representatives prior to the election, including lying to Mike Pence. Now he's claiming that he cannot remember exactly what he said or what he did. But Kellyanne came out to say that Flynn still had the president's confidence. That makes it liar squared. I bet by the weekend it will be liar cubed. 

If Trump thought that being president would improve his brand he is wrong.

Edit: Flynn is gone but serious questions still remain. Apparently the Trump administration was told about Flynn's conversations a month ago but did not take any action. Or rather the action taken was to still push forward his nomination to head the NSA rather than ask him to withdraw his name. What makes it even more special is the warning from the Justice Department came from the same Sally Yates, acting AG, whom Trump fired after she told him she would not enforce his travel ban. So just as in the Nixon administration, the question is "What did the President know and when did he know it?" Anyone who expects a straight answer from these clowns needs help.

  1. Please keep your political comments to the politics' boards. I come to the quilting/craft boards to get away from politics. Thanks.

  2. I for one am grateful that you do include comments on what you believe to be important. This is nothing new: in the past you have spoken about such things as the state of the education system, which is equally political. The very reason I read your blog is to remind myself that an interest in crafts does not preclude an interest in bigger issues.
