[quote=@The Harbinger of Ferocity] I have to be perfectly honest, [@mdk], that once I heard the Podesta Group and Mercury were and are involved, alongside Tony Podesta stepping down, and the dates Manafort is being investigated for all coinciding, I could not help but crack a grin. It is truly amazing to know that this is all they have managed to dredge, more fascinatingly there is also evidence to suggest they intentionally made no mention to the Trump campaign that the investigation had more or less started as far back as 2014 on these same issues. To add a crown to this, let us not forget that today was supposed to be "The Day" for collusion evidence... ... and nothing, nothing at all. Instead we even came to learn they rejected opportunities to meet with Russian leaders over [i]legal concerns[/i] from the start as with Papadopolous. It was apparently even rejected by Manafort and was the White House who provided the evidence at all for the investigation. [/quote] Well yeah, this has to be a let-down for the collusion narrative crowd. But still, I was wrong about Manafort and I'll own that. Mueller apparently running a pretty tight ship, which I never expected out of the investigation -- some of those indictments announced today were a year old and nobody knew about 'em. That's a leak-free probe. Whenever the story is "Trump isn't guilty," they seem to find a way to plug the leaks.
