 While leftists like Strawman and the MSM are using Alinski tactics to attack Trump and bullshit fake collusion, he's actually working on policy, the economy, social issues and foreign affairs. This guy had done more good for this country in six months than Obama has even thought of in the last eight years.

Why do they care about Manafort?
Spicer said he played a "very limited role" in Trump's campaign.

Indeed. Why do an early morning raid on someone who has been cooperating with the authorities

I guess Manafort's testimony the previous day wasn't fully believable...

I don't think we hear much from Mueller's investigation...this raid happened a couple of weeks ago as per Manafort's spokesman.

But we still heard about this raid through the press.... A month old raid. Why did it leak now?

One of the things that's interesting about this is how aggressive they are being with an investigation in search of a crime.  Why didn't the FBI use these kinds of tactics with Clinton when they had evidence that an actual crime had been committed?

How do you know that a crime wasn't committed? Maybe more evidence is being gathered for prosecution.

There is zero evidence of a crime being committed.  Even though there is zero evidence of "collusion," even if there were, collusion isn't a crime.

This whole thing is retarded.  There should be evidence of a crime before we spend probably millions of taxpayer dollars on a partisan witch hunt.  Not just a partisan witch hunt, but the stupidest conspiracy theory since 9/11.

Hold on to these thoughts, they may be useful to you in the future.

Even though the raid happenning right after testifying is a very aggressive move that happened under McCabe, failing to register as a foreign agent is a felony and both Manafort and Flynn did not register while they acted in that capacity. However, the DOJ "chooses" not to prosecute this, which is BS. Having said that, many more people, especially those who are "extremely careless" or habitually "can't recall" should have been raided without warning; alas, it seems once someone reaches a certain pay grade they are above the law.
