That's undermining the sitting president. That is effectively treasonous behaviour. There's one president at a time for a reason. Yet Trump said in a press conference that he saw nothing wrong with this and would have instructed Flynn to do it anyway.

This doesn't even mention that Flynn lied to Pence, lied to the justice department, lied to the FBI (a felony).
The biggest issue is that he lied, which then casts doubt about other connections between Trump, his team and Russia. They're continually denying that they're linked to Russia, but evidence is building that they're liars.
