WATCH: President Trump Attacks Clinton in Defense Of Flynn

WATCH: President Trump Attacks Clinton in Defense Of Flynn

On Monday morning, President Trump chatted briefly with reporters before departing for Utah. And when asked about Michael Flynn, Trump expressed sorrow for his former national security adviser.


"I feel very badly for Gen. Flynn," he told reporters. "He's led a very strong life and I feel very badly."

But then Trump went on to compare Flynn's treatment to that of Hillary Clinton, saying, "I will say this: Hillary Clinton lied many times to the FBI, nothing happened to her. Flynn lied and it destroyed his life. I think it's a shame."

He went into more detail about Clinton's alleged "lies," noting: "Hillary Clinton, on the fourth of July weekend, went to the FBI, not under oath. It was the most incredible thing anyone's ever seen. She lied many times. Nothing happened to her. Flynn lied, and it’s like, it ruined his life. It’s very unfair."

He then thanked the reporters and left.

Video of the remarks quickly found its way to Twitter:

On Friday, Flynn pled guilty to lying to the FBI during the investigation into Russia's meddling in the 2016 presidential election and possible collusion between the Trump campaign and Russian officials.

While Trump has repeatedly stated that Flynn acted alone in contacting Russia and that he didn't know Flynn had lied to the FBI when he fired him in February, things have taken a shift in recent days. Trump and his lawyer, John Dowd, are now claiming that they did know Flynn had lied, strengthening a case against Trump for obstruction of justice.

As for Clinton, she was cleared of any criminal wrongdoing, with Comey saying back in July: "Although we did not find clear evidence that Secretary Clinton or her colleagues intended to violate laws governing the handling of classified information, there is evidence that they were extremely careless in their handling of very sensitive, highly classified information."

The same can't currently be said for Flynn and the Trump administration.

Nancy Mace Has Unhinged Meltdown After Voter Asks Her About Town Halls In Bonkers Video

South Carolina Republican Representative Nancy Mace was criticized after she filmed her argument with a voter who asked her if she'd be hosting any more town halls this year—only for Mace refer to him as an "unhinged lunatic" for approaching her in the first place.

Over the weekend, Mace shared a video she recorded in the skincare aisle of a South Carolina Ulta store, in which she confronts a man she assumes is gay after he inquired about her public schedule. While the man remained calm and kept a respectful distance, Mace quickly escalated the situation—invoking LGBTQ+ topics without prompting, shouting profanities, and accusing him of harassment.

MAGA MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell Dragged After Weeping To Judge That He Has No Money To Pay Fines

MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell was mocked online after it emerged that he reportedly sobbed to a judge that he's "in ruins" and doesn't have the money to pay a court-ordered $50,000 fine to the voting software company Smartmatic, which he falsely claimed had rigged the 2020 election results in favor of former President Joe Biden.

Appearing via Zoom at a hearing in U.S. District Court in Washington, D.C., Lindell claimed Wednesday that he doesn’t even have “5 cents” to put toward the $56,396 he owes the company, telling the court he has “nothing” beyond two homes currently being liquidated and a truck. He has recently laid off hundreds of MyPillow employees due to what he described as severe financial distress.
