Inference is one thing, bald eagle statements are quite another.

This is an excellent point your making that people are missing. You don’t read an excerpt of a book, you read the whole book and then form an opinion. Mr cat keep spreading that good word. I guess I’m not the only one tired of winning.

Patrick Byrne has a writeup on this - he seemed to have a good rapport with Flynn in his retelling of the events leading up to 1/6:

Flynn and I were together again in DC, watching the approaching January 6 date like frustrated hawks. I had done several interviews and even a public speech or two where I had insisted that, “We do not go violent, we are better than the other guys, if we go violent we lose.” I thought it was too obvious to dwell on.

Mike Flynn was going to be speaking too, we were informed, and Mike and I spoke about what we were going to say, what the crowd needed to hear. We recognized it as a unique historical opportunity: we would have perhaps 30 minutes to explain to the world the irregularities that had disrupted the election, and most likely had changed its outcome. We prepared to meet that challenge.

Around that time, Flynn and I caught eyes and shared looks of horror: it turned out later we were both asking if the other wanted to leave, but misunderstood each other. It was so bad that someone with some sense among the organizers had a change of heart, and came running over to ask General Flynn if he would take the stage: he refused.

The moment we could make a break from the front, Flynn and I and everyone with us made a dash for the exit. Flynn could barely contain his fury as we shared impressions: this had been the one last chance to explain the situation to the whole world, and instead Trump had used it as a pep rally. “He just does not get it,” we repeated to each other as we stormed through the crowd back towards the hotel. “He does not get that it is not about him. He put on a fucking pep rally. He does not understand that this is not about him,” we repeated over and over in anger and despair. In 15 minutes we were back at the hotel, both packing our bags, both sick to our stomachs, and did not leave to join the throngs moving towards the Capitol.

So why did Gen. Flynn say in an interview on the 5th that on a scale from 1 to 10 , he thought it was a 10 Trump would be in the WH 4 more years? He was SO positive . What did he know that would lead him to make such an enthusiastic proclamation just a day before the 6th?

We thought we were speaking the next morning, and would have opportunity to have at least two scientists come up on stage and speak for 10 minutes each to explain what happened. Not Rudy up there talking about Joe Frazier voting, not trump up there looking petulant, but actual information being explain to the crowd. If he had done that it would’ve been an entirely different event. Instead it was a rally for Donald Trump. Mike and I were sick.
