    Default If Paul Manafort wins...

    So according to the Republicans and Fox News...

    If Manafort wins the trial, it means the Mueller probe is a witch hunt and should end.

    If Mueller wins the trial, it means nothing.

    If Manafort loses, I suggest that Trump scamper even faster away from Mueller.

    If Mueller loses, it illustrates what a failure the man is and his hyper partinship in this investigation.

    If Mueller wins, which is looking mighty slim, it changes nothing about his massive failure as a Special Prosecutor regarding Trump and Russian collusion.

    Who is saying that GayRod? Give us specific names not some ephemeral “Fox News”

    BTW

    Regardless what happens to Manafort it is still a witch hunt

    You know this whole Manafort trial is because you lefties believe in your heart of hearts that Trump personally met with Putin to “steal” the election from your girl. You believe Manafort knows about it and will give up the goods.

    Question is. If he had anything to give up why hasn’t he already?

    Why go to trial and spend all that money?

    Sorry, dumbfuck. The mention of Trump in this trial was not allowed.

    "Heart of hearts"? You pulled that gem right from your asshole, didn't you?

    Keep floundering, punk.

    That's really lame, and old, "to steal the election from your girl," it is amazing how conservatives still buy nearly two years after the fact that Hillary is relevant in any of this, get over it, the election is history, none of this has anything to do with Hillary losing the election

    And how can it be a witch hunt when in little over a year Mueller has four guilty pleas and thirty two indictments, the Star investigation last close to six years and produced nothing, BenghaziGate eight years and absolutely nothing

    Mueller is not going to lose, at best, hung jury, meaning they do it all over again, but you are right, for eight months the right wing media has been bombarding Trump's line that Manafort had nothing to do with the campaign, but if he is somehow found not guilty, they will be shouting that it proves Trump is off the hook and it all is a witch hunt

    Just shows they are reaching for straws

    Mueller is so far ahead of Trump and his base, that when he releases his report, the day before would be Trump and his base against Real America, the day after will be Trump and his base against Real America and the Real World.

    This doesn't have anything to do with the 2016 election? Really? Then maybe it is a witch hunt after all. Because I hear you guys say that Mueller is investigating Russia meddling in our elections. And it seemed to follow from the Presidential election of 2016 of which Hillary was a participant.

    If it wasn't the election he is investigating what is he investigating?

    Why do you even attempt to inject facts into his argument?

    Bottom line...if they aren't concerned that a POTUS is owned (literally) by a hostile foreign govt, then there's really nothing to discuss.


    If we can't be sure whose interests our govt. is putting on the front burner, we're in trouble.

    Of course, you could always take the easy way out, and tell them to replace the name 'trump' with the name 'Hillary', and see if they're comfortable making the same argument.
    Once in a while you get shown the light, in the strangest of places if you look at it right.

    You'll find out.

    So will Donald Trump.

    So will America.

    And the Trump defenders will have lots to pretend means other than what it actually means.

    Trump, the Trump presidency, the Trump defenders...

    ...are farce being played out on a national stage.
