it was always going to happen this way - it's so hard to keep people patient for anything it seems in this world of instant gratification

Trump should have done this ages ago. A President's pardon power is full and absolute.

Trump tried to play politics. His presidency wasn't about politics, it was about draining the swamp. The longer the Russia hoax and Flynn charges hung around, the deeper the swamp got.

I don't agree, and I think neither Gen. Flynn nor Sidney would, either. Better to be PROVEN innocent than ASSUMED guilty because a pardon was executed.

Unfortunately, given the tumultuous landscape, and the total shit stain that Sullivan is, POTUS likely felt it would be better to have it out of the way.

I agree, unless it should turn out President Trump had a reason for waiting this long.

You say that as if you understand the full picture. I'm sure when this is all over, it will make sense to people that can't see past the news cycle.

Without the stolen election, Trump would have let it ride. Judge Orange Man Bad had nothing left to do except dismiss charges. He was slow rolling it just to screw with Flynn, but this idiot judge was just about out of time. The DC circuit told him so. Trump did this because he either has plans for Flynn right now, or he figured he better get it done just in case he doesn't win reelection.

Well they don't have a say in pardons.

It's done. Flynn is a free man.

Pardons, legally, are like it never happened in the first place.
