Trump Blames Obama For Michael Flynn Scandal

Just like Spicer did yesterday. The Hill reports:

President Trump on Friday faulted former President Obama’s administration for authorizing the security clearance of Michael Flynn, his former national security adviser. “But just remember, he was approved by the Obama administration at the highest level,” Trump told Fox News.

“And when they say we didn’t vet, well Obama I guess didn’t vet, because he was approved at the highest level of security by the Obama administration,” Trump added. “So when he came into our administration, for a short period of time he came in, he was already approved by the Obama administration and he had years left on that approval.”

Obama fired Flynn and kicked him out of the government. Trump made him our National Security Advisor with no questions asked. https://t.co/CNRLa5OTE4
