Oh, not every Democratic is smart but if you're really going after your GED then that is very admirable and excellent goal. Good luck

I wonder if the justice department will go after Manafort for working as an unregistered lobbyist for a foreign country.

Trump isn't admitting he has a problem. He's just hiding a bottle from public view.

Default Trump just dumped Manafort (accepted his resignation)

Is this a good thing?

I sure thing Donald J. Trump has been doing better.

Discuss.

I think it is all 'for show' and he is really just going to continue, but behind the scenes. More BS. What else is new?

Trump will never hire someone who will make him muzzle himself, so I'm not sure why he things a change would help him.

I find it highly unlikely Manafort wanted to resign. He was most likely asked to do so, because Truml had to blame someone else for his foot jumping into his mouth.

Or the reported ties he has to Russia.

I would expect the DOJ to send Manafort a letter that he is a target due to the large payments from the Ukraine and palling around with the Russians.

The Trumpers are locked down. It's just that there's not enough of them. And undecideds may just not be huge fans of Putin's bag man running a US presidential campaign.

What I don't get is why this story is not bigger. Here we have an example of the canidates policy towards Russia directly related to his staff working for pro Russian interests. Yet, Trump supporters are in fear of what they fear may have or may happen with the Clinton Foundation. One is real and proven example of foreign interests potentially affecting US policy vs imagined what might happen with Clinton.
