There goes the flip?

Manafort is filthy. Hopefully, his money laundering operation violated state law, which makes him liable despite any attempts by the 'pardoner in chief'.

Yes... Even with a presidential pardon for federal violations, Manafort is facing decades at Rikers island.

He’s 68, 10-15 years. It’s a hard call, I say it depends on if and what kind of deal he gets!

I think he can get a sweet deal if he can earn the reward. Normally there are a line of swindled victims to assuage. In this case Manafort merely fucked us all at large by tax fraud. No blue haired retirees have been fleeced. United States will have a lot of dealmaking latitude. But he needs something juicy to sell and it's too late to wire him up and meet with the Orange Slob.

I only know what I read about him and I trust about half of that.

As it is, he's innocent till proven guilty. Still seems a little dicey to plead innocent when you know you're not. If I were Manafort and knew Mueller had a good case against me I'd be willing to talk. If he's that sketchy a character he could always make something up.

And I would be bargaining now, not after a trial.

There's no question he's going to sing. That's why all the circling of the wagons by many here is so amusing. They're distracted by the content of the warrants/charges. This is all about playing 'let's make a deal'.

Manafort is another cog in the wheel w/respect to the campaign colluding with Russia. He was part of the discussions at trump tower. Papadopoulous' emails are very bad for the W.H.

Yep. Ironically, Manafort NEEDS to know something, for his own good. Of course he knows something. He was in the trump tower meetings with the Russians. Watch for Papadopoulous' emails to make the headlines.

But there was no meeting and thus no collusion.

How long do we have to wait for it lol?
