Everyone knows that only innocent people participate in witness tampering.

If it is then now is the time before a trial begins and evidence presented in open court.

Rough couple of days for Casino Mussolini.

1) Sued (whole family) by the SoNY who says he isn't fit to run a charitable foundation
2) OIG report that shows no deep state in FBI
3) Cohen indicating he'll cooperate
4) Bizarre ad-hoc presser on the WH lawn
5) Campaign manager gets sent to jail, where he'll likely either die or also flip

In other words, a good couple of days for the country.

Cohen has already signaled he is ready to talk. How many days in a small jail cell will it take before Manafort starts to sing?
He was getting claustrophobic on house arrest in a nice NoVA home and fighting to get out of that. Jail will be a real wake up call for him.

I actually hope that they keep Manafort out of general population or even in some cushy white collar resort prison. High chance now that he gets offed by some Russian/Ukranian mafiosi on the inside. Dude's connections are shady af.

Fake witch hunt catching an awful lot of actual witches.

To be fair to Trump and his very fine people, a proper witch hunt ends when all the accused witches are tied to stones and tossed into the lake to see if they can float. If Trump is correct, then this is the only way to vindicate himself and his people.

I think we should do it.

Lying President just said Manafort had nothing to do with his campaign.

Hey! He was your CAMPAIGN FUCKING CHAIRMAN you dirtbag.

To be fair, those are big words. Maybe we need to draw him a crayola picture.

This whole thing could've been avoided if Cardinal Comey would've simply told Trump, " The guy you just hired, not a great guy. We've had him under investigation for a couple years now and you don't want to be in the same hemisphere as him." It's not Comey's job to to do that but just think about it.

I think you need to think about that one more time.
Why would that be a bad idea?

Like Trump would listen, anyway. The theoretical conversation would have been Deep State interference. Hell- it might have happened for all we know.
