(9,600 posts)The press is getting close now. But Trump and Manafort have a few more secrets there. Secrets that are not good for the US.

(34,136 posts)I doubt that is a coincidence. I suspect that the security people in charge of the briefing told Trump that if Manafort was part of the team to be briefed, they would get very little information.
I wouldn't trust any of Trump's other selections for his team but they may not have been the obvious security risk that Manafort obviously is.

(58,785 posts)They demoted him AS very damaging information broke, though. Not at all a coincidence for a Trump operation too dysfunctional and corrupted to act sooner.

(50,559 posts)The proposition Donald Trump could spell "matroyshka" is so ridiculous it deserves no further consideration.

(13,466 posts)What other candidate wouldn't have fired the guy by now? Long before now!
The Russian banks, mob, Putin, whatever have Trump by the balls IMO. So Manafort is still there.

(12,448 posts)Hillary Clinton's emails. Again.
National security? What do they care when they can study Clinton emails while pretending they pose a national security risk.
