Good. Flynn didn’t have the “Right Stuff”.
Everyone screws up sometimes. But not everyone quits.
Flynn might be an honorable and qualified man, but he caved too easily.

I disagree. He screwed up, he knew it, and he did the honorable thing by resigning rather than become a lightning rod for the Trump Administration.

We're talking about a cabinet post in an administration, not a Navy Seal team on a mission in enemy territory. Sometimes discretion is the better part of valor.

Flynn is a nationalist. He is in intelligence.

The Deep State and GOPe needed him out.

“Flynn might be an honorable and qualified man, but he caved too easily.”

Many of us admired and respected Flynn who appeared to be the right man at the right time. But lying to the VP can not be condoned, he had to go.

You can disagree, but the libs will treat this as a victory and go to the next target on their list. If he wanted to show his character, he would have admitted his mistake, and carried on. The liberals would have continued attacking him and would have left the others alone and they remained fixated on him.
He caved too easy and too soon. He surrendered; he did not go down fighting.
