Didn’t Manafort work for a Pro-Russian Party in Ukraine? I think he was carrying water for pro-Russian policies even hen he was involved in Ukrainian politics.

When someone like Manafort approaches and asks to work as your campaign manager for free, it is because he is really working for someone else.
Trump I gather is more of a don't look a gift horse in the mouth kind of guy.
It's interesting how so many with Russian ties ended up on the campaign. Manafort, Page, and Popadopalus.
Coinky dink?

"By the summer of 2016, Victoria Nuland’s “Spidey sense” told her something was very wrong."
"That spring, Nuland, the top State Department official charged with overseeing U.S. policy toward Russia, was one of those who had “first rung the alarm bell” inside the Obama administration....",
