    Paul Manafort has had his bail revoked for witness tampering and will now be in jail pending trial.

    I suspect time in prison will help Manafort think about what he has done and who he did things for. Once Cohen joins him in prison we may get a more accurate accounting of what happened.

    We'll see. Donald Trump today said that Paul Manafort had "nothing to do" with the Trump Campaign lol.

    He is just a coffee boy. You know what I like about coffee boys? They ask you if you want a refill and you just shake your head yes without looking them in the eyes and they just like totally fill your cup with coffee

    thoughts and prayers.

    It's a sad day in America when partisan judges and partisan legal officials start targeting political campaign staffs that they don't agree with. Manafort's charges have nothing to do with the Trump campaign, and are from very old circumstances. This is a classic example of "show me the man, and I'll find you the crime." Settling political scores through the legal system is the mark of a third world country. Can you imagine if Trump set up a special counsel to start looking into Podesta, Mook, Palmieri, and other Clinton staffers -- hoping to find something from their past where they could be thrown in prison? That should be concerning to all. It's political score settling, not using the legal system to protect Americans.


    GOOD DAY

    You are adorable how you keep trying to spin this....you should change your moniker to the adorable deplorable.

    Seriously, though, you are completely shameless and transparent. You Bot/Nationalists/Alt Right folks played out your hand a long time ago - you are ineffective and toothless.

    for the education of Traitor_George

    many of the charges against Manafort's are related to his financial entanglement w Russians;
    these criminal activities continued during his tenure as the Trump campaign Chairman.​

    Wow, educational "show ignored content" -- sad allegiance w RussiaLegend. SMDH.

    Manafort is in jail b/c we are a country of laws and he was blatantly tampering w witnesses like some sort of rookie mob figure.

    All he does is post blatantly ignorant statements in a cohesive manner to illicit reactions from people. Some of which are to actually learn new information and discuss it. He typically gets what he wants though.
