Defeated Democratic Party presidential nominee Hillary Clinton trolled the Trump administration with a ‘retweet with comment’ of a tweet by her former spokesman Philippe Reines taunting Gen. Mike Flynn (Ret.) over his resignation Monday night as President Donald Trump’s National Security Advisor with a reference to Comet Pizza of Pizzagate infamy.

Philippe's got his own way of saying things, but he has a point about the real consequences of fake news… https://t.co/a02sXiaHfp

Reines served as Clinton’s press secretary when she was U.S. senator from New York and for her 2008 presidential campaign. He was appointed to high ranking positions advising Clinton during her tenure as secretary of State. In the 2016 campaign Reines acted as a stand in for Donald Trump for Clinton’s debate preparations.
Gen. Flynn was falsely accused by the media of tweeting about Comet Pizza. However his son and advisor Mike Flynn, Jr. did tweet about Comet Pizza.
Both Flynns deleted their Twitter accounts last month.
Pizzagate is a conspiracy theory that posits senior Clinton Democrats are involved in a child sex ring that revolves around Comet Ping Pong Pizza in Washington, D.C.
In December an armed North Carolina man traveled to Washington to ‘investigate’ Comet Pizza and fired his weapon in the restaurant. No one was hurt and the man peacefully surrendered.
