I'd have to think some more on this entrapment argument. I'd have to look at exactly what Flynn lied about. Entrapment generally means when the govt comes to you, and suggests you do something illegal that you did not have any "prior disposition to do."
I'm just an old hack. In my world its more about a copper (the filth) asking Flynn "hey Mike, next time you're in Turkey how about picking me up a couple of kilos of hash." I assume Flynn was not in the habit of bringing back drugs.
But I thought Flynn already lied to Pence about his Turkey dealings … even after he tried to get square by belatedly registering as a foreign agent and (choke) agreeing to give up the money.
LOL
There was no entrapment.
They got information that he was talking to Russians about sanction response and when they questioned him about it he decided it was a better idea to lie to FBI than to tell the truth.
There have never been any claims that FBI somehow pushed him to talk to Russians or lie about talking to them.
