What the hell?

Forget Trump. He's not the guy's client.

How about saying something about how Manafort is innocent?
A fun fact. A judge waived Manafort's attorney/client privilege, so his attorney has to testify before a Grand Jury about what Manafort has told him.

Nutty Don's approval rate is at 33%.

"The 33-percent approval rate is lower than Presidents Barack Obama, Bill Clinton, George H.W. Bush, or Ronald Reagan ever received during their tenures. The poll was conducted before Monday’s news of Mueller indictments of former Trump campaign staffers Paul Manafort, Kevin Gates, and George Papadopoulos."

Three more percentage points, and R's will be nudging Corker and Flake aside.

What?

Why did the judge waive Manafot's attorney/client privilege?

I googled and found this:

It may not be the current lawyer.

the judge was persuaded that there was significant evidence Manafort and Gates had duped their lawyer into sending inaccurate letters to Justice about their lobbying efforts and about what emails might exist about the work.

Right off Law and Order. Lawyer being paid by "friends" and he talks about saving the "Don". Can hear Lenny Briscoe now (god rest his soul)

POTUS again proving to be his own worst enemy. Started tweeting lies again. You would think his lawyers are pulling their hair out.

The man even tweeting about his young volunteer George.

I would have thought we would have ended this thread, but the POTUS continues to lie.

What is a "young volunteer" doing at the table with the grown-ups?
