More witness tampering from Trump? "Good luck today in court to General Michael Flynn"



“Good luck today in court to General Michael Flynn,” Trump tweeted. “Will be interesting to see what he has to say, despite tremendous pressure being put on him, about Russian Collusion in our great and, obviously, highly successful political campaign. There was no Collusion!”

Former U.S. Attorney Daniel Goldman and other legal experts were astonished by the president’s tweet, and they tried to decipher what the president actually meant with the statement.

“No doubt he has been told that Flynn did not provide evidence to the special counsel of a conspiracy with Russia to interfere with the election,” Goldman tweeted. “Big question: who told him?”

Lawfare managing editor Quinta Jurecic said the president had again apparently violated the law against witness tampering with his tweet, after a similar one aimed at associate Roger Stone.
