I only watched part of it, but the news has been nice enough to replay the high lights over and over again.
If I understand correctly, Trump said two things I found really interesting....
1) He said the leaks are illegal. If this is true, this means someone leaked real classified information. Which means Flynn discussed speaking to the Russians about sanctions while he was a private citizen - which is highly illegal.
2) Trump said he did not direct Flynn to speak to the Russians about the sanctions, but that he would have ordered him to do so if he discovered Flynn was not already discussing the sanctions with the Russians.
No matter what we need to have a full investigations into Trump's ties with Russia, including disclosing his taxes.
