It'd be easy to dismiss this as just more Fake News from the Clinton News Network, except it would be credible to think that Obama and the NSA had hacked and wiretapped General Flynn just as he did everyone else.

If he “warned him,” why didn’t he fire him? Flynn was an OBAMA hire.

Except that I could care less what Obama warned Trump about.

Did he also tell Trump to let Russia have Crimea, Ukraine and Syria? Because that’s what Obama did. Did he advise Trump to sell Russia our uranium?

Perspective is a valuable thing.

Sorry, this fake news won’t hide Obama’s horrible legacy.

He should have thought of the legacy aspect before he decided to make America worse.

The real story: Once Trump started using Flynn as an advisor during the campaign, Obama intensified their spying on Flynn.

What a vile tactic it is to say someone’s name “kept popping up” without any charge or context.

Of course his name started popping up, they were spying on him!

Hmm.

Mr. Sources giving more information to CNN, I see.

Mr. Sources shows up everywhere. Giving information to all the msm. A very connected person. We need to all listen when Mr. Sources speaks. At least the msm seems to give Mr. Sources a lot of credit for his valuable information.

If legacy is so important to Obama, he shouldn’t have kept Lois Lerner, that Yates woman, Lynch, Susan Rice, Hillary Clinton, Holder, Jarrett, any of his DHS people or any of the other anti-American subversives in his administration.

Warned because Obama didn’t like him - probably not a hint of what Obama had done to illegally gather info on him.

This CNN article is #FAKENEWS, just trying to make Obama look good and make Trump look bad.

More of the same CNN #FAKENEWS.

Don’t be too sure. I sense DJT wants to avenge Flynn for the grease-fire treatment the RATS gave him, and restore his name.

Make them think twice about attacking his people if they have to answer for it for a year under oath.

You know, working in Chicago a lot and being familiar with the personages there, I warned US voters about hiring Barry Soetoro — but, hey, they did not listen.

A Kenyan safari organizer who makes it all the way to POTUS is not concerned about a legacy. He has lived beyond his wildest dreams.

Let's assume he did warn him; we can then also assume he didn't tell him why. To do so, would have been self-incriminatory.
