Flynn has already pled guilty. This is not a trial.
I think Sullivan's already decided he's getting no time, due to what Prosecutors are asking for, but he was simply getting it off his chest that he thinks it's ridiculous that Flynn is going to get off this easy.
I would also guess that his main goal at this point would be to make certain that since Flynn is going to get off super-easy, then the Government needs to get AS MUCH info out of the guy as possible.
