Trump has managed to streamline at least one thing, by reducing the stages of grief to just “Anger” and “Denial”.

So Trump’s reply is basically “Wah! We’ve spent decades investigating HRC and came up with nothing whatsoever, but here a non-partisan investigation comes up with indictments in just a few months! Unfair! We worked longer!”

I think it’s more likely he’ll implode to a rage singularity.

He will become so dense that nothing intelligible can escape- an Orange Hole.

Actually, I think he reached that state quite some time ago.

So if Manafort committed these crimes before he became Trump’s campaign manager, than that means that Trump hired a felon to run his campaign. All the best people, huh? And I wonder what Papadopolous is saying.

He hired only the best felons…Top-notch felons, some of the world’s greatest felons.

Trump probably just didn’t read all the way through Manafort’s indictment.  
Buried deep in the second sentence of the first paragraph of the introduction, it says that Manafort was laundering money “at least **through** 2016”.

imho, that sounds like Manafort coulda been laundering money this year as well.

What is the longest that Trump has gone without tweeting while president? This current tweet desert must be close to a record for him…

Maybe he’ll pay more attention if the next round of indictments mention his name.

Um, so is it fake news or not? Is it a witch hunt except when Podesta is the target?? Or is he implying that Mueller got Podesta fired to discredit Podesta because he has dirt on Dems???

And did he really mean to write “weak” or did he mean “week”?
