I would not read too much into this judge’s questions. He may very well be establishing a high bar so that if Manafort gets convicted, there will be little for him to appeal over.

I thought of that.

The judge isn't saying that there is no evidence against Manafort on the charges, just that the prosecutor is trying to bias the jury on irrelevant stuff.

Exactly.
