What is it that Manafort did? I’ve lost track. It was something to do with something that happened a lot of years ago when he was working for Putin? Did he doublecross Putin and that is what got him in the Mueller crosshairs? It’s all so confusing. Who recommended Manafort for the Trump campaign?

Manafort helped Trump win. That is his crime.

Manafort was only brought in after the primaries were over to manage the delegate process in advance of the convention in order to block the GOPe from mounting a floor fight.

Once the convention was over, Manafort was dismissed and Bannon and Conway took over.

There isn't much of a window for Manafort to collude with Russians. Why would the Russians want to risk exposure by meddling with a GOP-only delegate fight that was a long-shot Hail Mary at best for the disgruntled GOPe?

Witness tampering. Allegedly.

Anonymous sources say it had to do when he was in 8th grade and had an overdue library book. Instead of paying the $1.35 over due fee, he bribed the librarian with $.50 to ignore the total fee.........Serious stuff!
