If not VP, then possible Secretary of Defense.
I hope he gets the nod!
Just on this he’s got my vote
As VP, would not General Flynn be some kind of *insurance* for Donald Trump the Threatened ?!
Strange days.
Re up his commission. Perhaps chairman of the joint chiefs of staff
Some pretty damn sick, twisted disloyal people are running the show now. Period.
He appears capable, but he’s a certain kind of stupid for being a Democrat as a military guy.
VP? I’m not so sure. SecDef? Absolutely.
The idea of this man as VP certainly makes the old “so and so can bring in Ohio” stuff seem pretty tired. Here Trump would have a true Obama attacker, with an honourable axe to grind. I guess I’m selfish but (having read and enjoyed the Post article) I’d love to hear him talk about getting out of the middle east not getting into it. Then again I am no world affairs expert lol.
Yes, Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn needs to be a part of this administration in any relevant capacity.
So should Tom Tancredo, a stalwart on the illegal invasion who was shown the door by the RINO RNC. Rove hates tancredo - and that alone give TC much credibility.
I trust Mr. Trump’s judgement on his choice for Veep, whomever that may be. He’ll be taking the long view, we can be sure of that.
Stop with the “radical” jihadist, “radical” islamist etc.
They are just islamist and jihadists. We did not call the SS troopers radical nazi did we? They were just nazi.
FWIW, it is being reported that Flynn is a registered Democrat.
Not sure how that would play with the base.
——It infuriates me when our president bans criticism of our enemies——
Why then is there Obama?
He was fired because the Islamic enemy agent posing as our President didn’t like that the General spoke the truth. This is the government DEMOCRATS have given us today ladies and gentlemen.
He hasn't got it all right. Secular dictators are the most stable form of government in much of the Muslim world. The populace does not prefer to live like us. Many of them want to impose Sharia law and kill or inslave the infidel. The US naive attempt to impose democracy on Muslim countries has led to much grief and death.
What are his positions on everything else? I don’t know, you don’t know.
What I don’t understand is his affiliation with the Democratic Party. For 30 years he and his men have been crapped upon by every democratic in Washington since Sam Nunn. Why do you continue to stay in the party? Wesley Clark bought the democratic line and stayed a democrat.
I’m tired of surprises, I want to see solid credentials.

No way! First, the choice of a Democrat for VP would drive off some of the remaining Republicans committed to Trump. Secondly, despite being fired, Flynn was Obama’s pick to be a yes man in the military and help change the service.
That said, a cabinet position would not be as distasteful although I would expect Trump to exhaust more conservative choices before crossing the aisle. The country has gone too far left. Trump’s success shows the desire of millions to swing more to the right, hopefully meeting an equilibrium at some point.
