Locking up Manafort will have the same impact on foreign / anti-American lobbying as locking up Jack Abramoff 10 years ago: literally no impact.
Mueller needs to lock up a few dozen lobbyist principals and a few "swamp" lifer politicians just to make a dent. Short of that this entire thing is a pointless charade. |

I saw this legal maneuver once.

It really is. I have no doubt Manafort is guilty of that which he has been convicted. However, pretending he’s the only one guilty is insane. The other guys doing the same thing are being allowed to creep back into shadows. All while liberals are OUTRAGED by Manafort and zero evidence of collusion is produced. It’s kabuki theater. |

I totally agree and I think the DOJ does too. |
It was never about rooting out foreign / anti-American lobbying. It was always about squeezing Trump's associates to have them sing. Mueller could have gone after these lobbyist when the crimes were occurring and he was the director of FBI at the same time. Podesta will walk away free. |
| I have no sympathy for Manafort or people like him such as his buddy Roger Stone. Manafort and Stone have been D.C. swamp rats since the 70's. Trump promised to drain the swamp but instead he's hired them. Most lobbyists and the politicians they buy are whores. My apologies to whores for insulting them. |
I have reported this comment as offensive. |
Offensive to garbage? |
lol okay... |
You meant "the other Podesta brother". |
