No matter what, Trump cannot escape...He has been named co-conspirator with Cohen, so will be charged the moment he leaves office....Happy days!

"Save his hide?" What are you smoking? Save his hide from what? Neither of these two cases brought by Mueller, straying far from what he was supposed to be investigating, have anything to do with Trump, Russia, or "Russian collusion."

Of course he d feel justified in doing so. Anyone who steals from the American people or commits fraud against the United States is A-OK in his book. Now THOSE are good people.

I agree with part of what you say, but Manafort is guilty as hell of making huge amounts of money and not paying taxes on it. He should not be pardoned, and I don't think Trump will do it.
Then The Left will be disappointed and will invent some nefarious reason that Trump has for NOT pardoning him.

Trump cannot pardon state convictions. We can be sure the states involved are already locked and loaded to negate any Trump pardons.

Manafort has been treated very unfairly. Others have committed greater crimes and yet have not even been prosecuted (Hillary Clinton, for one). This proves once again that Mueller's investigation is nothing more than a "witch hunt," and that he is as unscrupulous as his reputation suggests.

Manafort must pay for what he did !!!

Income from foreign governments must be reported !!!

Anyone that takes money from foreign government and doesn't report it to the federal government must spend the rest of their lives in prison !!!


Except for the Clintons...

Clinton Foundation officials refiled five years of tax returns Monday after admitting to errors that covered up millions in government grants and foreign donations
