<\/p>\nTrump Tweet: \u2018Mike Flynn Should Ask for Immunity in That This is a Witch Hunt\u2026of Historic Proportion\u2019<\/b><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Donald Trump reacted to news that former national security adviser Michael Flynn has offered to be interviewed in exchange for immunity in the investigation in the Trump campaign\u2019s ties to Russia in a Friday morning tweet which echoed the language put out by Flynn\u2019s lawyer on Thursday night.<\/p>\n
\nMike Flynn should ask for immunity in that this is a witch hunt (excuse for big election loss), by media & Dems, of historic proportion!<\/p>\n

The NYT reported<\/a>:<\/p>\n
In a statement on Thursday evening, Mr. Flynn\u2019s lawyer confirmed discussions with the House and Senate intelligence committees about possible testimony by his client. The lawyer, Robert Kelner, did not provide specifics about the terms under which Mr. Flynn would testify, but said that \u201cno reasonable person, who has the benefit of advice from counsel, would submit to questioning in such a highly politicized, witch-hunt environment without assurances against unfair prosecution.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cGeneral Flynn certainly has a story to tell, and he very much wants to tell it, should circumstances permit,\u201d the statement said.<\/p>\n
