Manafort fesses up.

[Sparko]

Perhaps you'd consider posting what, in your opinion, in the source is the denial you allude to? I'm not seeing it, but maybe I'm missing something.

This thread appears to have veered wildly off-topic. I guess folks are no longer interested in the "Manafort fesses up" nothing-burger.

"What's on the menu today, Bob?"
"The usual: nothing-burgers."
"You make the best nothing-burgers, Bob."

We found something we liked fighting about better.

"Then, something happened that would get reported, mostly inaccurately, in perhaps 1,000 newspapers, blogs and media outlets. Because I was recognized by a large number of participants, I began greeting people who approached me. I talked that day to what seemed like 500 people in a 15-hour period ending at 11:30 p.m. One of those well-wishers was carrying a recording device, and he suddenly appeared before me and held a microphone in my face. He asked for my impressions from the day.

I spoke candidly for about 20 seconds, as I recall. Then he disappeared. "

He's denying making an announcement, which was my intended meaning. You may have understood something else.

He also denied knowing about any renewed religiosity:

Not when the charges have zip to do with the campaign.

He denied making a formal announcement, but admits having communicated that Trump had turned to Christ.

He also denied knowing about any renewed religiosity:

This is a rather greater stretch on your part; if Trump "appears to be tender to the things of the Spirit", that would indeed be evidence of renewed religiosity. The only thing he's denying here is certainty, which I would expect him to do regardless of the person being discussed.

All in all, this is hardly a "decapitation" - merely your usual picking of nits. You may have gotten a solid hit on that first nit, but it's still a nit.

Of course they don't, just keep telling yourself that.

Ain't that how it happens so often?

[JimL]

Jim's just fishing for an aspersion to cast. He's not into that whole understanding thing.

I guess what you call casting aspersions, is the stating of a fact.

[lilpixieofterror]

Social Christians.

Well, no. You did state a fact, but you and I both know that your intent in doing so was to cast aspersions - or do you pretend that you think Christians doing something makes it a good thing?

[Cerebrum123]

Why do I keep reading this thread title as "Manafort dresses up".

[Mountain Man]

Of course they don't, just keep telling yourself that.

OK, which of Mueller's indictments has any direct implications for the Trump campaign?
