Jack Posobiec, an aggressively loyal social media Trump sycophant who was kicked out of a pizza restaurant for filming a child’s birthday party in an attempt to discover the truth about “Pizzagate,” made desperate attempts to spin for President Trump after news broke that General Mike Flynn had testified that officials from the Trump campaign instructed him to talk with Russians.

Mike Cernovich, a self-described leader among the “New Right,” got in on the spin and posted a poll questioning whether “Team Mueller would frame a political opponent for a crime”:
