Former CIA director James Woolsey a key witness against Flynn had dinner with Trump at Mar-A-Lag

key witness in the special counsel probe ate dinner with President Donald Trump over the weekend at Mar-A-Lago.

James Woolsey, the former CIA director and board member at Mike Flynn’s lobbying firm, took part in a “lengthy conversation” Saturday with the president, reported Business Insider.

The conversation was revealed by a tipster to Politico Playbook.

Woolsey, who was the guest of Newsmax chairman Chris Ruddy, spoke with Trump at the main dinner table, where the president and first lady Melania Trump dined with Marvel Entertainment Chairman Ike Perlmutter and his wife Laurie.

Seated nearby were Eric and Lara Trump, Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross and his wife Hilary, Howard and Michele Kessler, Kimberly Reed, Lee and Erika Lipton, Jack and Barbara Nicklaus, Bret and Amy Baier, and Robin and Richard Bernstein.

Woolsey was present at a Sept. 19, 2016, meeting where Flynn and Turkish government officials discussed forcibly removing Muslim cleric Fethullah Gulen from the U.S. — a plot that has fallen under investigation by special counsel Robert Mueller.

This is strange. Why do these guys fall for Trump's invitations to incriminate themselves?

I still say, in my humble opinion, that Flynn was a Russian spy running some sort of recruitment operation to incriminated Woosley, Nunes, Giuliani, into some sort of compromised situation. The Turkish entity that Flynn was associated with was financed by the Russians and registered in Turkey like it was a Turkish group.
