If Mueller was planning to bring charges against Manafort, Stone, etc, for conspiring with Russia, would he already have charged them, or might he be waiting to drop conspiracy charges against everyone at once so as to not give away to much info to Trump?

There are still a bunch of sealed indictments. I’m sure there is a lot of strategy going on here.

Yeah, the Trump supporters who keep talking about how there’s been no charges against him conveniently ignore that there are numerous sealed indictments. Some of them are almost certainly against Trump himself.
