You do realize the trial is still going on and that the prosecution has not rested it's case? It's almost like you've never seen an episode of "Law & Order" to know how this stuff works.

Is that true?
Everything I have read inicates he took the job with no salary. He is flat broke and he takes the job as campaign manager, sure seems like he was selling access no different than Cohen. That is not a crime in itself but his days outside a prison are numbered based on the evidence. Still its disturbing that these for profit members of the Trump campaign could influence him and gain from their actions.


Gates, his bookkeeper and the bankers are all turning on him, I don't see this going the distance.

The only thing Manafart can hope for is a Trumpie on the jury and a mistrial. And I put the chances of that at slim to none.

Difficult to see how he is going to get out of that.

What's the bank fraud about?

Adding 3+ million to a falsified doc they submitted to a CA. bank for a loan. The book keeper wouldn't do it on request, so Gates and Manafort doctored it themselves.

If you already read the indictment, why did you ask that question?

Makes no sense...

As for has he been convicted...can you wait until the trial is over, or do you think I can see into the future?

Strange the way those who spend endless hours, day after day, week after week, posting nonsense on this forum are now in a huge rush for trial to be over.

4 days straight of Judge Ellis browbeating the prosecution.
He shut it down today early in disgust and told the Jurors to go home for the day.

If there is only one factual statement in this entire ridiculous thread of presumption and innuendo, Judge Ellis was pretty disgusted when called he for early recess. What that means for Mueller/Manafort is yet to be seen.
