title:  Michael Flynn Begs For Donations On Twitter, Gets Wrecked By The Internet
text: Remember that time Michael Flynn led  lock her up  chants at a rally for Donald Trump, and also said that he  would be in jail  if he had done  a tenth  of what Hillary Clinton did? Well, that was last year. It s 2017 and the disgraced former Trump administration national security adviser is begging for donations to help with expenses to defray costs connected to the investigations into Russian election meddling. The various investigations arising out of the 2016 presidential election have placed a tremendous financial burden on our brother Mike and his family. The enormous expense of attorneys  fees and other related expenses far exceed their ability to pay,  Flynn s siblings, Joe Flynn and Barbara Redgate, said in a statement, according to CNN. To help ensure that he can defend himself, we have set up a legal defense fund, and we are asking Mike s supporters, veterans and all people of goodwill to contribute whatever amount they can to this fund.,  the statement continued.On Twitter, Flynn wrote,  Lori and I are very grateful to my brother Joe and sister Barbara for creating a fund to help pay my legal defense costs,  and added,  We deeply appreciate the support of family and friends across this nation who have touched our lives. Flynn included a link to donate so that he will not be locked up. Isn t karma a wonderful thing?We deeply appreciate the support of family and friends across this nation who have touched our lives. https://t.co/O08co3DRpn 2/2  General Flynn (@GenFlynn) September 18, 2017Twitter users are drinking Flynn s tears.#LOCKHIMUP  Joe H-man?? ? ? ??

(@USseriously) September 18, 2017Maybe you should have saved some of that foreign money you lied about receiving  GatorOs (@GatorOs) September 18, 2017There are some Trump supporters on Twitter who are heralding Flynn as a  hero  who has been undermined by the  Deep State . We encourage those conservatives to donate every penny they have stashed away to help this traitorous arsehole while Special Counsel Robert Mueller buries him. Meanwhile, our donations can go to candidates who will help us to drain Trump s murky swamp which strangely seems to have a Russia accent now, thankyouverymuch.Photo by Andrew Harrer-Pool/Getty Images.
