Manafort fesses up.
“I think God, in creating man, somewhat overestimated his ability.” ― Oscar Wilde
“And if there were a God, I think it very unlikely that He would have such an uneasy vanity as to be offended by those who doubt His existence” ― Bertrand Russell

Another nothing-burger as far as Trump and the mythical "Russian collusion" narrative is concerned.
So what does this have to do with Trump? Well, nothing, actually:
Some may call me foolish, and some may call me odd
But I'd rather be a fool in the eyes of man
Than a fool in the eyes of God

Then there's this from NPR:

And from MSNBC Legal Analyst Danny Cevallo:
"I take issue with the assumption that it must relate to Russia. Mueller is investigating things that may arise from his investigation of Russia, and we’ve seen he has the authority to do that. And when you look at those pictures that you put up a few minutes ago, George Papadopoulos, not connected to Russia in his plea. He pleaded guilty to lying. Michael Flynn pleaded guilty to lying. … Alex Van Der Zwaan, pleaded guilty to lying. Now, of course, when you talk about, is it related to Russia? Yeah, I realize there are two Russian flags in the bottom right corner of the screen. So, the indictments are related somewhat to Russia. But when I look at that screen there, I see one, two, three, four, five faces that arguably had very little, if anything at all, to do with Russia."
And now to help put things into perspective:
Sorry, dirtfloor, but if your girlfriend Rachel Madcow is hyperventaliting about this and hollering, "We got Trump! We finally got him! We finally got him!" then somebody needs to tell her to calm down before she breaks the hearts you precious snowflakes all over again.Some may call me foolish, and some may call me odd

Now consider the fact that none of Mueller's indictments to date have so much as laid a pinky on Trump, and see if you can figure out the rest for yourself.Some may call me foolish, and some may call me odd

Originally posted by Mountain Man View PostYou still don't understand how this works, do you? If a prosecutor is trying to get the small fish to flip on the big fish, he first charges the small fish with the big crime, gets him to plead guilty in exchange for a reduced sentence, and then uses that guilty plea as evidence to go after the big fish.

Originally posted by JimLamebrain View PostOnce again, you have no idea what Manafort knows, or what Mueller now knows as a result of Manaforts plea deal. Prosecuters don't make these plea deals in the hope that the little fish "just might" know something that implicates the big fish, they make them when they know exactly what it is that the little fish has and whether it is worth the deal. It's just a matter of time, MM, just a matter of time.Some may call me foolish, and some may call me odd

Podesta Group.... Where have I seen that before?
Oh, THAT Podesta Group.
Methinks Trump is not the 2016 candidate who should be worried about this.Enter the Church and wash away your sins. For here there is a hospital and not a court of law. Do not be ashamed to enter the Church; be ashamed when you sin, but not when you repent. – St. John Chrysostom

I take it from the answers so far that, no, you’re not having as much fun as I am. I’m thinking Alec Baldwin for the movie with the usual cast from SNL.“I think God, in creating man, somewhat overestimated his ability.” ― Oscar Wilde
“And if there were a God, I think it very unlikely that He would have such an uneasy vanity as to be offended by those who doubt His existence” ― Bertrand Russell
