Not everyone on the Left believes Flynn’s indictment is the beginning of the end for Trump

By Debbie Lord for The Atlanta Journal Constitution
Dec 4, 2017

Does Flynn’s indictment  spell real trouble for Trump’s presidency? Or is that just a pipe dream from the Left? A roundup of editorials Monday takes a look at what’s next.

Opinions from the Left:

1. Why did Flynn lie and why did Mueller charge him with lying?

The Hill: If you’re looking for a smoking gun in Flynn’s indictment, you may be doing so for a long time.

2. Could this be the beginning of the end of the Trump administration?

From The Los Angeles Times: Flynn’s deal may not be the end of Trump’s administration, but many believe you can see it from here.

3. The odds of impeachment are dropping

The Atlantic: The Left has forgotten that it will take pressure from Republican voters to impeach Trump, and that’s not likely to come.
