Former President Barack Obama Barack Obama Trump congratulates France’s Macron White House confirms Obama warning on Flynn: He wasn’t a ‘fan’ The Mideast-focused Senate letter we need to see MORE made it clear to President Trump that “he wasn’ t exactly a fan” of ousted national security adviser Michael Flynn, White House press secretary Sean Spicer acknowledged Monday.
But Spicer said Trump chalked up the statement to different views and partisan politics because of Flynn’s criticism of Obama’s “lack of strategy” on counterterrorism.
Flynn was fired in February after just 24 days on the job after it was revealed he misled senior administration officials about his conversations with Russia’s ambassador to the U. S., Sergey Kislyak.
