      Flynn charged only with low-level 1001 count may have to do (in part) with pardons-- if Trump pardons him (or Flynn fails to follow through on the deal) there are lots of charges to come back with. @jessewegman @matthewamiller @chrisgeidner

      Yes, folks, I know (as does Mark) that Trump could issue a more broad pardon than just these charged offenses. I’ve asked him what he’s getting at there with that.

      Some commenters are right-- Trump could give Flynn a "general" pardon. But (1) Mueller has already gotten value out of Flynn at this point, and (2) a general pardon requires more of Trump's limited political capital.

          um, sorry but LOLing at the idea that Trump will make fine calculations about his "political capital"

          Same. I don’t think Trump knows or cares what political capital is. He just does whatever he wants.
