A Kangaroo Court is a sham legal proceeding or trial, one that denies due process and fairness in the name of expediency. The outcome of such a trial is essentially decided in advance for the purpose of providing a conviction; going through the motions of procedure is only done to make it "official". The defendant will likely be allowed no defense nor be allowed to call witnesses, present evidence or make objections. If they are allowed, they will be summarily overruled by the Hanging Judge that usually presides over the trial in question. Especially nasty versions may even slap the accused with "contempt of court" penalties for even trying to mount a defense. If the trial results in a death sentence, some people will use the term "judicial murder" to describe it.
..... especially in countries ruled by dictators, who are fond of putting dissidents through "show trials" as a prelude to execution. The etymology is unknown, though many (mostly wrong) suggestions have been made.

When all else fails, ad hominem.
I suspect that Manafort has some exposure. He’s not the brightest bulb, and he seems to have gotten himself in over his head. The only question is whether he is the kind who would make stuff up to get himself out of the problem.
But you are right. They are going to threaten him. That’s the way this is done.
‘He’s not the brightest bulb’
Is this a personal opinion, or do you have a source?
Manafort stepped down after the convention, and I'm not even sure what he's been doing since then.
That kind of thing is always a personal opinion. Either mine or someone elses.
I’ve seen a lot of comments and opinions re Manafort. Apart from you, I’ve never seen his intelligence questioned.
Are you Parroting? Sounds like a sound bite from all, including Fox MSM......
Sounds like the typical, unconstitutional “CONSPIRACY” charge will be coming Manafort’s way, along with lying to an FBI jackboot, for misstating the number of button-down shirts in his closet. They got Scooter Libby on this utter nonsense. Bush should have given Libby a full pardon.
If you were a lawyer..tell me the issue with john dowd having personal detailed knowledge of that sealed no knock warrant
Be honest.
+1
Good chance failing to report foreign bank account is one issue.
If that is all he ever did...that is minor. I doubt that is all he ever did given everything surrounding him. It is leverage.
I will be interested in who is behind the mortgages on that dustin hoffman victim deal
Your obsession is anything but healthy.
Lololololol..cant answer the question????.
Or wont because you know it is problematic
Haha
Best not to humor your pathological obsession.
Lolol.
Yep..pretend lawyer..or just dont want to tell the truth
Your obsession has become downright creepy.
MUELLER ELECTION FRAUD
Imprison this corrupt bastard Mueller.
Mueller is coordinating Election Fraud. Manafort was important in securing the 2016 election. He is now attacked.
Mueller is rigging the 2020 election.
Trump should fire Mueller now. Begin criminal prosecution for election fraud.
