Surrounded by people who believe in, even invent conspiracy theories?
Appointing Flynn? Bad choice; I saw his ARROGANT kind of General in my 22 year Air Force career. Risky choice! These types are weak leaders.
Flynn has passed on FAKE NEWS!
FAKE NEWS IS A CRIME! People who create and those who pass on FAKE NEWS are criminals. THERE OUGHTA BE A LAW AGAINST FAKE NEWS! Fake news can destroy America and our democracy faster than flag burning Mr. Twump!

"There’s a Mark Twain quote that reads: A lie can travel half way around the world while the truth is putting on its shoes.
This was before the internet and social media, so it’s even more true, now."
"Rep. Adam Kinzinger, R-Ill., said on CNN Tuesday that tweets from retired Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn, President-elect Trump’s incoming national security adviser, and his son Michael G. Flynn, are troublesome because they promoted debunked conspiracy theories. The younger Flynn, who is his father’s chief of staff, in particular has promoted the “Pizzagate” story. [My opinion: Flynn's son should be arrested under any law that is close, like felony hate speech!}
That story purports the Clintons and top Democrats ran a child sex ring out of a Washington, D.C. pizzeria. A man was arrested after bringing multiple guns to that restaurant on Sunday and firing a shot."
"Donald Trump’s most terrifying appointment"
By Paul Waldman - The Plum Line opinion

"There may be no more dangerous choice Trump has made so far than picking Michael Flynn to be his national security adviser. There are few more important positions in the White House, and few where the wrong choice could have consequences quite as catastrophic. If we contemplate how President Trump might handle an international crisis — which he will face, probably before long — we see just how troubling Flynn’s appointment is.
It’s no mystery why Trump chose Flynn for this position. Trump is simultaneously contemptuous of military leaders (you’ll recall how often he said during the campaign that he knew more than them) and enamored of them; his Cabinet is likely to contain multiple retired generals. Early on, Flynn was one of the only former military leaders who endorsed Trump and campaigned with him. He quickly became Trump’s closest adviser on national security."
Flynn is the guy who says Islam is not a religion. Smart?
He passes on FAKE NEWS!
And he is not a good, efficient worker. He is a bad manager.
This is one of those guys who finds conspiracies wherever he looks.
"Let’s do a quick rundown. Flynn, who was head of the Defense Intelligence Agency, was fired by President Obama for a number of reasons, including mismanagement. His staff got so used to him believing things that were obviously false that they began referring to them as “Flynn Facts.” Nevertheless, he had a complete certainty in his own rightness. At one meeting, “Mr. Flynn said that the first thing everyone needed to know was that he was always right. His staff would know they were right, he said, when their views melded to his.” Furthermore, “Some also described him as a Captain Queeg-like character, paranoid that his staff members were undercutting him and credulous of conspiracy theories.”"
I worked with "Queeg-like" fools like Flynn. They mess up a lot of people's ability to work and be productive, ON PURPOSE! They see messing up people as "managing."
"Flynn believes that Islam is “a malignant cancer” that is actually “a political ideology” that “hides behind this notion of it being a religion.” He has tweeted that “Fear of Muslims is RATIONAL” while posting an anti-Islamic video and asking people to “please forward this to others.” On his Twitter feed, he has a propensity for spreading fake news stories from the right-wing fever swamps."
