Oh my. So much stupidity and hypocrisy to unpack.
Well he knew of at least one person's guilt according to himself. And in spite of knowing that Flynn lied to the FBI, during a scheduled WH meeting he ordered everyone to leave the room besides Comey and proceeded to ask him “I hope you can see your way clear to letting this go, to letting Flynn go.” regarding the criminal investigation of Michael Flynn.How would he know whether they are guilty? They are being charged with things unrelated to him. Tax fraud, lying to the FBI, etc. Nothing to do with whether Russia colluded with the Trump campaign to influence the 2016 election.

*AllegedlyIt's so strange how dwalk forgets to use his favorite word when he posts.
Yea, this was the whole point. Glad you’re finally seeing it.
"I knew him only as he pertained, you know, as he was with Jeff Sessions. And, um, you know, look, as far as I’m concerned this is an investigation that should have never been brought. It should have never been had. It’s something that should have never been brought. It’s an illegal investigation. And you know, it’s very interesting because when you talk about not Senate confirmed, well, Mueller’s not Senate confirmed."
Well he knew of at least one person's guilt according to himself. And in spite of knowing that Flynn lied to the FBI, during a scheduled WH meeting he ordered everyone to leave the room besides Comey and proceeded to ask him “I hope you can see your way clear to letting this go, to letting Flynn go.” regarding the criminal investigation of Michael Flynn.
Flynn resigned on February 13th 2017 at the president’s request. The official WH statement was that he misled the vice president.
On the 26th of January 2017, acting AG Sally Yates and a senior member of the DOJ national security division visited the WH and informed Don McGahn about Flynn's FBI interview.
The DOJ had received a detailed readout of the interview from the FBI, so Yates felt it was important to inform the WH that the Russians could have potential blackmail as the lying to the FBI centered around conversations about sanctions with the Russian ambassador.
According to Sean Spicer, McGahn immediately informed president Trump after the meeting.
The next day, Don McGahn called Sally Yates back to his office. According to her congressional testimony under oath, McGahn never personally told her that he had relayed the information to the president.
McGahn wanted to know if Flynn could be prosecuted and asked “Why does it matter to DOJ if one White House official lies to another?”, to which Yates responded that it was more serious than that.
McGahn was concerned that taking action could interfere with the investigation but Yates assured him that the DOJ wouldn't be informing them and expect them to not be able to take any action.
He also wanted to see the underlying evidence, to which Yates agreed.
On January 30th, Yates called McGahn and told him he could come the next Monday morning and examine the underlying evidence.
Yates couldn't testify whether or not McGahn ever examined the evidence as she was fired by then for refusing to defend the travel ban executive order.
But either way, McGahn was made well aware that Flynn was in serious legal jeopardy, as well as being a potential blackmail target for the Russians.
And yet it took until February 13th for Flynn to resign at the president's request. The WH statement made no mention of his FBI interview, only that he misled the VP.
On February 14th, Trump and Comey had that one on one meeting about Flynn. The president's lawyer Rudy Giuliani has confirmed that meeting and conversation took place but insisted that it wasn't an order or suggestion.
““He didn’t direct him to do that. What he said to him was, ‘Can you give him a break?’” said Giuliani in July this year. He later backtracked those comments and denied any conversation about Flynn took place, adding that’s what the president would testify.
Trump later changed his story on Flynn’s firing and said he had to fire him because he lied to the FBI. Which means he was well aware Flynn was under criminal investigation when he told Comey “I hope you can see your way clear to letting this go, to letting Flynn go.”
Do you have any evidence to support this claim?
I simply picked up on the "how would he know whether they were guilty?" part. In Flynn's case, he did know he was guilty.What does this have to do with the alleged collusion with the Russian government to influence the 2016 election by the Trump campaign?
At least you’re honest about it. Better than the majority in this thread when it comes to the issue of Russia collusion. It is paying political dividends for the Democrats.
So, the answer to the question is "no".I know it may be difficult to grasp, but the apparent caveat is "in my opinion."
