$10 mil bond for Manafort, $5 mil bond for Gates, house arrest for both. They are both facing serious prison time and steep financial penalties potentially.

I'm enjoying how the White House is characterized Papadopoulos as a low-level volunteer, yet there's a image of him sitting at a very important table wearing his best Sunday suit with Big Daddy at the head of table. Nobody gets that close to a national presidential candidate unless there's a very good reason for him to be there.

Don't spin this that he was just some guy in charge of selling 20/20 raffle tickets.

If anything, this looks like some volunteer wanting to make himself look important, and no one was interested in what he had to offer.

Trump campaign adviser made repeated attempts to set up meeting with Russia

Papadopoulos sent Manafort the possibility of meeting Russian officials through the Kremlin-backed Russian International Affairs Council, though the campaign chairman put the kibosh on the idea.

“We need someone to communicate that DT is not doing these trips,” Manafort told his business partner Rick Gates, an account his spokesman Jason Maloni confirmed to the Daily News Monday evening.



Meanwhile, is seems the Hilary campaign and the DNC actually did pay foreigners money to dig up dirt on Trump.
Only a "volunteer" who was living in England yet sitting at the table with Trump and his national security team?

I'm sure all low level volunteers get to hang out at the table for national security meetings. Right?

If he is charged he is toast, you know and I know it, even a pardon would result in removal from office. But first they need to get his minions, I am waiting for Kushner to be charged as he is an obvious major target, and that is getting really close to trump, who will be saved for last, like the icing on a cake.

Trump: "You mean there isn't one?"

It's fairly easy. Facebook post or post on a web page would do it.

There has been no "collusion" on the part of the Trump team or Trump himself. You know that. You just like repeating the lie.

The Russian collusion has all been shown to be by Hillary and the DNC in producing the phony "dossier," which they hired Steele and Fusion GPS to do after The Washington free Beacon ended their oppo research with Fusion GPS.

To continue to repeat the lie makes a fool of you, and it does not help Democrats at all. If you want to do your Party a favor, then learn to accept the truth, and quit lying.

WOW JUST WOW

look at the bolded bit.


The poster/source has cut the sentence short to hide it's full meaning

here is the FULL quote (from the posters link below)

Quote:



“We need someone to communicate that DT is not doing these trips. It should be someone low level in the campaign so as not to send any signal.”


it is very clear the emailer is talking about HIDING what they were doing from any scrutiny, by using unmonitored flunkies .... this is DAMNING evidence.
