This would be a good place to start a rumor that Trump put a hit on Manafort and that explains why he's in solitude which, or course, isn't all that far-fetched. LOL All kidding aside, if he had followed the judge's instructions he would be at home with his ankle bracelets. Pretty stupid of him.

The only thing mueller seems to be doing is straying into far left field--hitting at manafort time after time after time, like he has nothing else to do, going after the Russian ad people, that was a huge miscalculation on muellers part, etc.,...not a single thing against Trump. After all of the time spent on the investigation ...mueller's got nothing. mueller may even have less by next week, too, after Judge Sullivan gets done with him. mueller knows this...and still he has brought out nothing on Trump. IF he had anything he would have brought it out by now.


As far as manafort, if there was actually something there then he would/should have been charged back around 2005. Since he'd already been investigated years ago and they didn't think it was enough to charge him with then maybe there really isn't anything to go after him for. (now, don't go spinning what I said. I am saying that if it were that bad then he should have been charged years ago. By suddenly wanting to charge him for something that they refused to charge him for years ago seems to make it appear that it is nothing but political, and that is wrong.)

Nothing happened back then
and not a single one of the haters seems to have cared enough to scream at obama to go after him. Suddenly people care? What changed? Oh yeah, it's all because of the hate for Trump.


Soon, the hunter may become the hunted -- 9/11, HSBC, U1, etc.
Ah, but plenty has happened since 2005. Especially in Ukraine and Russia.

Do educate yourself about Manafort's involvement and entanglements in both places, well after 2005.

See https.themoscowproject.org/players/paulmanafort/ for starters. It's a carefully detailed account of his dealings, starting way back when and continuing to the present.

Manafort returned from the Ukraine to run Trump's campaign.

It cannot be repeated often enough that Manafort's Ukrainian oligarch connections were NOT pro-Democracy Ukrainians, but Pro-Putin Ukrainians, one and all.

It seems that many who have not followed developments in Ukraine very closely over the twenty-odd years of its independence, are assuming that one Ukrainian is equivalent to all Ukrainians.

Not so at all.

Rot in prison for the rest of your life (Manafort will be facing 50+ years), or cooperate with the Special Counsel and flip on Donald Trump. Your choice, Paul.


This is Manafort's life currently. Sounds miserable.

He has actually no choice.
Putin will get to him.one way or another for failing to secure Trump s actually lifting of sanctions.

Why anyone continues to allow Trump to continue being President of the United States or CEO of the United States is beyond me.
Trump stabs everyone in the back.
Why does sucker after sucker keep getting on the wrong bus?

They continue because otherwise they would have to admit they were scammed into voting for a con man and a crook, and they would die rather than admit they were in error. The RW have come to a point that they would burn their houses if they thought a Liberal would choke on the smoke.

Also, a Black man was president for four years and remains hugely popular throughout the world, whites are slowly but surely becoming a minority in the United States, and women are getting uppity and wanting to take men's positions in politics, business, and the church. Must be a harsh, scary, lonely world to be a Trump supporter.

Actually, a Black man was president for 8 years. Concur with the rest of your post.
