Michael Flynn and his son, Michael G. Flynn, arrived at Trump Tower in New York on Nov. 17, 2016. It's hard to know whether a deal involving Flynn could hurt Trump when we don't know whether there will be a deal at all. An alternative target: Paul Manafort, the former Trump campaign chairman, against whom Mueller already has secured an indictment. It also is possible that Flynn could spill damaging information about Trump that is unrelated to collusion with Russia. It would not, in other words, undermine the validity of Trump's victory, which seems to be Trump's primary concern about Mueller's probe.
