    Manafort worked for the Party of Regions, headed by Viktor Yanukovych, a staunch ally of Vladimir Putin, who was granted asylum by Putin when he got run out of Ukraine.

    Seriously? Is hanging on to your rancid vote really worth your dignity? (Not that you had much to begin with)

    So, tell me... why do you persist in supporting Donald Trump? What's your motivation? Do you really hate Latinos and Blacks that much? I can't see a reason except that, or that your foolish pride prevents you from admitting you made a mistake. Not just a mistake, but a STUPID mistake... because all of his scumminess, his crookedness, his racism, his mocking of disabled people, his sexual assaults... all of that stuff was OBVIOUS.

    Let me tell you what your pride buys for you in the eyes of honest and decent people: disgust.

    And now we have another indictment: One of Trump's first publicly announced and official policy advisors, George Papadopolous, has been indicted for lying to the FBI.

    One of Papadopolous's first duties was to set up meetings between the Trump campaign and Russian leadership, including Putin:

    Nothing will come of this. Manafort will plead the 5th and not talk and then Trump will pardon him. That's what the Arpaio shit show was about. It was a message, you protect me, I pardon.

    Guess what? Trump can't pardon state crimes. And it looks like from the indictment that Manafort laundered money in violation of the law in at least Virginia and New York, and also violated their state tax laws. His goose is cooked.

    And one other bit of encouraging news: Trump might try to pardon, but he can't legally do that if he is a co-conspirator. So, if it turns out Trump, too, assisted and participated in money laundering in Cyprus, Ukraine, or Turkey, etc. any pardon he grants to Manafort can be undone.

    This part from the indictment is VERY interesting:

    "From in or about and between 2006 and 2017, both dates being approximate and inclusive, in the District of Columbia and elsewhere, the defendants PAUL J. MANAFORT, JR., and RICHARD W. GATES III, together with others, "

    But we are about to see whether Republicans value this country and the rule of law over their own Party, aren't we?

    How am I supporting Trump in this?

    You keep throwing around these emotional racial arguments and you offer no facts to your assertions.

    You call me a liar almost every post and I am supposed to take you seriously? You are NOT objective and have never been. If you fail to call-out all issues, you wont be treated fairly as you, yourself, are unfair in this political debate.

    Just fathom this: Trump's CAMPAIGN MANAGER and one of his TOP POLICY ADVISORS have both been indicted on serious charges... including conspiracy against the country... and that fool is insisting that Trump will clean things up? I mean, how embarrassingly shameless can a person here get?

    Here... I'll give you an opportunity to redeem yourself: ADMIT that Trump is a piece of shit and you should not have voted for him.
