Manafort off to jail

[IJTSSG]

Are you really going to try and predict what President Trump may or may not do? No one in Vegas would give odds on any possibility of anything he's involved with.

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.

Yeah, it's not like the campaign vetting team had any warnings about Manafort. Nobody could have predicted...

Alternatively, the person campaigning for the most powerful position on the planet could have conducted a simple Google search on his new campaign manager who was mysteriously willing to work for free. It's not like Manafort's ties to corrupt, Russia/Putin associated oligarchs and political figures were a mystery at the time Trump hired him.

Either Trump knew and didn't care (most likely) or Trump is so colossally lazy and incompetent that he probably shouldn't be trusted anyway. Comey provided Trump with tons of help during the campaign anyway, he didn't need to act as his HR department too. How is it that a supposedly successful businessman doesn't know how to vet candidates?

I'm continually amazed at how the lazy and incompetent manage to become multi-millionaires. It's simply baffling.

As far as Manafort is concerned, fair enough he should've known.

As if this point hasn't been made a hundred times already and it still hasn't sunk in:

They inherit.

 

[shortylickens]

HOLY FUCK!

Never a hundred years would I have thought someone like that gets actual jail while awaiting trial.
Apparently, the system CAN work.
Wondering what kind of bullshit Sarah and Kellyanne will spread to cover this story up.....

You don't think they could have, oh I don't know, Googled his name? Try it for yourself. See what comes up from before the campaign.

But yeah. It's Comey's fault.

Edit: I'm late to the party. moving along.....

I haven’t baked a cake with a file in it in a long time. Guess I better get to work. I’m going to be doing a lot of baking for Team Trump.

Lol.

Just a reminder that Manafort:

• Campaign Head for 144 Days
  
  
• Personally Picked Pence
  
  
• Worked w/ Trump for 30 years
  
  
• Lived in Trump Tower, where he met Trump constantly
  
  
• Worked on Trump transition team
  
  
• Attended Trump Tower meeting

IN JAIL BABY! BOO YAH!

What are you talking about, Trump will barely know the guy in the next 30 days. Or has that already happened. <shrugs>

Nobody knew that hiring key personnel with no ties to Russia was so hard.

Trump's way ahead of you on that. His campaign manager? Barely knew him.

“You know, Paul Manafort worked for me for a very short period of time,” Trump said, before ticking off other Republican presidential nominees with whom Manafort has been affiliated. “He worked for Ronald Reagan, he worked for Bob Dole, he worked for John McCain or his firm did. He worked for many other Republicans. He worked for me for what? For 49 days or something? A very short period of time.”

Also : Crime.

Trump only picks the best.

That suggests they're competent at something.

Was he the first that Trump barely claimed to barely know? I'm losing track of his childlike flimsy denials.

You know, for a nothingburger, there seems to be an awfully large amount of ketchup on their shirts....

Or if the campaign could have use due dilligence and Googled?

It doesnt take a genius to stuff a kilogram of coke up your ass, you just need a bigly ass... wait a minute...

 

[Phokus]

Manafort? Never heard of him, probably some coffee boy or some other insignificant person who had no interaction with Trump whatsoever.

 

[MomentsofSanity]

Ok. Fuck all of them.

Rudy Giuliani tells @NYDailyNews "things might get cleaned up with some presidential pardons" when the "whole thing is over" in light of Paul Manafort being sent to jail.

[cytg111]
