Last week, I wrote about how Trump’s pick of Mike Waltz for UN ambassador
was the ultimate trolling of the left. I even suggested that Trump could
up the ante by nominating Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn to replace Waltz. Flynn,
a seasoned intel veteran, was one of the earliest and most high-profile
victims of the Democrats’ Russia hoax. Whether Trump goes that route
remains to be seen, but it would be a power play.

And it looks like Flynn is on board.

During an interview on “The Benny Show,” with Benny Johnson, Flynn
declared he’s prepared to return to the role of national security advisor
under President Trump—if called upon.

Flynn, who briefly held the post at the start of Trump’s first term before being railroaded by the Deep State, left little doubt about his
willingness to serve again.

“I am ready to serve,” Flynn said, referencing a post he made on social
media that stirred speculation about his return. “The first question—yes.
The second question—no,” he added, confirming that while he hasn’t been contacted yet by Trump directly, his hat is firmly in the ring.

“I’ve been watching everything, listening, and observing intensely,” Flynn explained. “We are in a place where we cannot afford to have, as Trump
likes to say, unforced errors. We cannot afford to drop a glass ball right now.”

Flynn emphasized that despite not being in government anymore, he has
never stopped serving the country. “I’m serving now, Benny. I serve in
just a different way… I’ve been engaging people in government. I’m still
out doing stuff,” he said. “That’s my message to every American: How are
you serving this country?”

With his extensive military and intelligence background, Flynn made clear
he hasn't retreated from public life. “I didn’t go off into the sunset and
go, ‘Woe is me,’” he said. “I know we have great leaders out there… There
are a lot of people who have reached out to me to help get their name put forward for some position in the government, and I’ve done that.”

Flynn also didn’t mince words about the fear he believes his return would generate among entrenched bureaucrats and the media. “Yeah, is there a
group of people in the Deep State that fear me? You're dam* right they do.
They fear me for a good reason,” he said. “The mainstream media—they would
blow a gasket.”

When asked directly if he had any breaking news to share, Flynn reiterated
his commitment to rejoin the fight: “I would say to you, Benny, that I am ready. I am ready to come out of that glass, that is for sure.”

Flynn noted that while President Trump is already doing “wonderful
things,” the ideological battle in America is far from over. “We are still
in a massive, massive ideological war going on in this country,” he
warned. “There aren’t going to be any friendlies if we get to another
election and we lose the majority in the House of Representatives—never
mind the next presidential election.”

While Trump has yet to name a new national security advisor, Flynn’s
public signal leaves little doubt that if asked, he’s ready to step right
back into the role.
