The Papadopolous confession exposes Trump as a liar regarding Russia (we already kinda knew that) and exposed Sessions to seeming perjury charges. That's a pretty solid start. It's true that the charges against Manafort don't cover the 2016 election, but they do cover actions he took working for the Ukrainian Party of Regions....working to support Russian interests. And Sam Clovis lost his nomination to be the USDA chief scientist, a position he was never qualified for but especially as he seems to be cooperating with Mueller's investigation.
Manafort is a seriously shady dude. He runs a consultancy firm for dictators and kleptocrat, primarily. And this is a guy Trump decided should run his campaign. It says a lot.
Now we just have to see if Republicans are as hypothetical as they seem.
First, Manafort did NOT run Trump's campaign. He was in charge of one aspect...working to get the delegates all on the same page.
Find me a rich and powerful man without any dirt, and you might have something to talk about. It's common knowledge that these special counsels can dig up something on anyone.
Given that Trump has repeatedly claimed that his Administration would attract "all the best people," one wonders as to why he settled for Manafort, Flynn, Sessions, Price, Papadopoulos and a Secretary of State who thinks he's a "moron!"First, Manafort did NOT run Trump's campaign.

So don't get out your cheerleading pompoms yet. :chuckle:

"Glorydaz" has made a series of self-serving claims in an effort to make the Titanic look like a success-story!

Right. He should be able to see into a man's heart just like God does.

The Paul Manafort indictment is much ado about nothing . . . except as a vehicle to squeeze Manafort, which is special counsel Robert Mueller’s objective — as we have been arguing for three months (see here, here, and here).
