I think he should pardon him as well - on Nov 7.
Manafort has been railroaded and is a victim of selective prosecution.
Trump is absolutely right that no aide to clinton would ever go thru this.
Nevertheless, Manafort appears to be guilty of at least some income tax evasion related crimes so I think he should serve a couple of more months.
I actually also think Trump should pardon michael cohen for the same reason.
It would be the ultimate “Trump” move.
I want to see that back stabbing a-hole turn it down !
“I want to see that back stabbing a-hole turn it down !”
There is no constitutional mechanism to turn down a pardon.
