Did Pence Force Resignation of Flynn?

[kennetha]

I don't know, but I suspect that the current crisis was forced by Pence.

I think Pence went to the Toad in Chief and gave him an ultimatum. He told the Toad that he had to choose between him, Pence, and Flynn. The Toad chose Pence. Why -- when Flynn is his right hand man on foreign policy, and Pence is an outsider? Because the resignation of the VP over Russia cover-up would have been an even larger scandal!

I suspect that this is a major power play and pay-back by Pence.

1. It was prompted by the leak of Yates warning the WH about Flynn.

Then everyone scrambled.

2. Pence is literally nothing. No one.

Flynn was thrown under the bus so the administration could say "See? All done. Nothing more to be learned here."

And it may even work with the Trump Congress.

3. No

I do not think this was a power play by Mike Pence. I think Flynn rubbed someone, other than Pence, in the White House the wrong way and they leaked the information about him talking to the Russian ambassador about sanctions.

I think Mike Pence is doing the same thing that Jared and Ivanka Kushner are doing. He is pretending to be the sensible person. I think Pence is just as deep into Flynn's talking to the Russian ambassador as any other member of Trump's administration.
