This is the subtle start of your disinformation attempt. Throwing in the Nazi reference to set a "tone and tenor" as Pete likes to accuse Trump of doing.

this other tweet sums it up

You call government witnesses “rats” and you wish “good luck” to convicted felons who, according to the judge, “sold out your country.”
And your crescendo of misinformation rises by pluralizing rat to "rats." He called only one a "rat" who actually is one. That trick continues by implying he said "good luck" to plural "felons." Then you finish with the damning sounding verbal misdirection of paraphrasing what the judge said then putting it in quotes as if it is what he actually said. And not only paraphrasing, but leaving out a key word "arguably," thus creating the false "alternative fact" that the judge said, as you put it, Flynn "sold out your country.”

What the judge actually said: "Arguably, you sold your country out!" It could be argued so, but not necessarily that it was true.

The Judge also said "I wasn't suggesting he committed treason!" And when the Judge asked the prosecution if they considered the charge, the answer was that it was never considered.

Your disinformation trick here is typical of the slick "interpretations" of what Trump says that is done over and over on this forum.
