Let’s be clear. Very clear
I have had more than one exchange with Cboldt ..who I believe is a lawyer...about the scope of this investigation. I maintained that Manafort’s money laundering was not outside the scope. He called me a kook. This was months ago
I believe the natural extension should be to look at Tony Podesta given the circumstances of his connection to Manafort.
That is far different than saying..oh hey look..let’s pretend we are investigating trump but really investigating Clinton
It looks like we agree the scope of the investigation could go completely away from “Trump and his associates”.
“let’s pretend we are investigating trump but really investigating Clinton”
Mueller could be doing that, he has personal reasons to do it, and there would be nothing wrong with it. It's a way to crack very high level corruption. There was nothing about the Saudis running an anti corruption investigation, then boom, arrests. Law enforcement uses that technique all the time.
