The flimsy story put out so far may be embarrassing to Trump, and Manafort is certainly something I'm glad to see go, but there was literally no evidence that Manafort did anything wrong. They glossed over the fact that he hired Podesta's brother and in the notebook they displayed there is not one mention (as nearly as can be made out from the unreadable scrawl) of Manafort's company. In other words, the notebook is not actually evidence of anything. Also, notice that the story has already died, meaning, "Mission accomplished."Procopiushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17554355440319405363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3856837.post-6049508666348672712016-08-19T23:37:12.623-04:002016-08-19T23:37:12.623-04:00{chuckle} {chuckle} Ten Bearshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06594307610015584119noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3856837.post-46154176416210391212016-08-19T12:18:50.634-04:002016-08-19T12:18:50.634-04:00NBBen: events, dear boy, events.

Manafort needed a QUICK exit, so this week has been about multiple smokescreens to ease that.<br /><br />It really has no meaning anyway: Stone left, but not helping Trump - his partner Manafort could take over; Lewandowski got let go, it seems, but has not stopped helping Trump; Manafort was never before this up front as a campaign spokes, but his leaving is no problem: his partner Charlie Black is around to act as conduit, and Black has been involved for months as it is.<br /><br />Again: Stone, Manafort and Black were all in the same firm that was founded along with Lee Atwater. Same firm. Still f**king rats after all these years. They are the cultural and ethical descendants of Donald Segretti, and perverse cousins to Karl Rove. <br /><br />Beltway Rats<br />Been cheatin since they was babies<br />Beltway Rats <br />Griftin since sevennytwo<br />Beltway Rats<br />All got their start with Nixon<br />Beltway Rats<br />In on the Reagan speech in ol MissFeud Turgidsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05379322096770703017noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3856837.post-48006796422373493982016-08-19T11:48:18.221-04:002016-08-19T11:48:18.221-04:00What genius in the campaign decided it would be a ...What genius in the campaign decided it would be a good idea to have Manafort resign now?
