E.J. Dionne: Gen Flynn a ‘Really Scary Figure’ with ‘Very Disturbing’ Views of Islam

‘I think Flynn is a really scary figure and there is his view of Islam as well which is very disturbing’

RUSH TRANSCRIPT: 

DIONNE: "I think it’s really petrifying if you listen to all the folks who were so worked up about Hillary Clinton’s speeches and then you have Michael Flynn who will be our national security advisor who was paid to speak at this Putin network dinner. You have Flynn close to Putin. You have Flynn close to erdogan. He has been working for the Turkish government, president Erdogan of Turkey. There was a story in the “New York Times” two days ago about his attack on the free press. And you asked a question, should people who have differences with these guys like Flynn or Pompeo go into the administration. I guess my hope is that some strong people do go in to see if they have the power to counter some of this because I think Flynn is a really scary figure and there is his view of Islam as well which is very disturbing."
