Trump campaign and admin are FULL of people who have something to hide. Someone

who has secrets is controllable. He/she is compromised. Russians that know about Manafort's secret accounts therefore control Manafort. What did Manafort do for them...not just for money, but because of threat of exposure?

News today is full of legal entanglements, legal problems, financial misdeeds. But let's also remember that there are implications beyond the dollar signs and false statements. These people accused of technical crimes MAY ALSO HAVE POISONED ANYTHING THEY TOUCHED...any decisions, actions, conversations with campaign and WH administration has to be looked at through the lens of whether or not Russians influenced these actions.

How can the GOP look at all the Russian connections and pathways to Trump and not think there's influence?

Republican platform and agenda which, quelle surprise, suddenly lurched even more toward being buddies with Russia and Ukraine at one time when Ukraine was friendly with Russia... easy to connect the dots...and the blackmailing while Manafort was campaign fucking manager.

No wonder Trump dropped him like a hot potatoe when his dull brain realized what he had done.
