When they have big fish stuff, they don't need the small fish.
Apparently small fish is all they got.
Waste o' time and money.
Bigger fish would have leaked. For sure. Agreed
Thank you, fellow sane person.
Mueller isn't going to play tax games with Manafort if he has anything of substance on any big fish. This isn't a long range 3 D chess game. Mueller has been investigating a long time, and this is all he could come up with.
But by all means, the babies here can continue cooing and reaching for the shiny object. Apparently real life holds no lure for them. Fantasy land, engage!
Donald Trump's campaign manager has been charged with conspiracy against the United States. Did you not see that?

And there it is. They will have similar communications on servers somewhere that will have been sent to Trump directly, in all likelihood.
As the noose tightens, someone (probably someone small--a John Dean type) will crack and say they "were only following Trumpnut's orders". And just like any defendant faced with these types of charges, Trump will go down, hard. It will take time, though. Tincture of time and diligence, which Mueller has in spades.

They both laundered money. This indictment also illustrates to Trump that Mueller knows how to engage in financial forensics and use it in a legal proceeding.
So, let me get this straight.
If your best childhood friend was caught embezzling than, you, as his friend, would also be guilty?
I know how badly you want your statement to be true, but just saying it does not make it so.

This is an even bigger deal than Manafort
It happened on Oct 4th. If it’s a big deal, why weren’t we talking about it when it happened?
See the Washington Post article about it in the other thread; and this document was just unsealed today.
The fact that it was unsealed today with Manafort is bad news for all the Fox News lovers

The campaign of which Manafort was chairman? That campaign?
You mean the campaign chairman who was there briefly and then let go?
Still not seeing the connection.
Okay. You don't have to see any connection. This is obviously all NBD to you.
If Mueller is so sharp and there’s such an avalanche of evidence, where is it?
No where.
God, you clearly have no idea how the government builds a case.
If the gov had a case it would not need to build one.

Ha! If you personally hire an obviously shady character to run your personal business (ie, campaign), then, yes, you are guilty -- at a minimum -- of terrible judgment.

Yeah, other than being Trump's campaign manager, his indictment doesn't have anything at all to do with Trump.
The tax issues and money laundering occurred years ago. Before Trump.
