President Trump tweeted Friday morning that former National Security Adviser Michael Flynn “should ask for immunity” to avoid a “witch hunt” — but he had a very different view of immunity six months ago.
Trump defended Flynn’s offer to testify in ongoing probes of Russian hacking of the 2016 election in exchange for legal immunity.
But during last year’s campaign, Trump excoriated Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton’s associates for getting immunity, asking: "If you're not guilty of a crime, what do you need immunity for?"
