rest of title....."Rather Than 'Die in Prison'
Video:
Alan Dershowitz said that Special Counsel Robert Mueller is hoping that Paul Manafort will opt to testify against the president, rather than face a lengthy prison sentence.

The left is no longer denying their double standards.
So, this is the way it works? They bust Manafort for something that he did well before Trump even declared as a candidate and then try to reduce/exonerate his sentence by getting him to give up dirt on Trump? Some judicial system we have here.
Gee, to talk about what “crimes”?
The crime of encouraging someone to expose Hillary Clinton’s crimes?
I guess if you’re Bob Mueller, that IS a crime.
The rest of us think of it as a public service.
Oddly, I recall an America where testimony like that was routinely impeached since the witness is clearly being coerced.
Testify against Trump how? If he truly knows of a impeachable crime Trump has committed, then by all means he should say so. Otherwise, they’re coercing a lie out of Manafort.
Mulehead wants Manafort to “compose” not testify.
I think Manafort is going to tell Mueller and his thugs to stick it.....cuz there’s nothing derogatory to tell about the President..
Manafort will just wait it out & wait for TRUMP to reward him for his loyalty
Corrected title:
“Mueller Hoping Manafort Will Choose to ‘Lie’ Against Trump”
I've seen this show before.

Am I missing something? Why would someone make up a lie in hopes of leniency against the one person who values loyalty and can make everything go away with a quick signature? I’m sorry, but I don’t think Manafort nor Cohen have anything on Trump. It would make no sense to be the hero of the left and try to sink him. Trump is their only chance of commuting their sentences or granting pardons. I want the guilty to serve time but let’s not worry about the small potatoes.
“Take Chico’s soap. Never return.”
The remarks you make are sadly from another time and another place.
What Muller is doing is criminal in its self...There have been real crimes committed against Constitutional law by liberals...who may do as they please. That sadly is the here and the now.
Not hardly - because if they get away with it, they'll be coming for us Trump supporters with their corrupt government next.
Root and branch.
I don’t think Trump owes him anything, since I don’t think Manafort has an dirt on Trump to withhold.
That's what I would think. Anything Manafort says now is said under duress. It would have to be corroborated by others, who aren't under duress.
Not that there is anything to say. They can't even seem to find any Russian interference in the election, that's not simply free speech. And if there was no Russian intererence, there couldn't have been collusion.
God is known to influence the affairs of men. So, let’s get praying
Manafort will be pardoned. As he should be.
The diff here is this on pardons as I know - if Manafort is found guilty of a federal crime Pres Trump can pardon him but not for state & local.
Frankly, Mueller knows he is walking a fine line between Manafort and himself. If there is a huge press MSM blowout on Manafort it draws attention to Mueller himself and his own crimes.
He’s been a dirty cop for years and I’m looking to see how he is going to quietly extricate himself from this circus and Manafort he created. Im not saying yes or no about Manafort .... Lady Justice is blind.
BUT, if you recall those 12 russians Mueller handed over to a obscure Office of Whatever & Who & Whenever....and then Putin’s public cooperation the MSM and The Derp State backed down....
Just watching and waiting.
There is probable cause to believe that Paul Manafort stole $700K from Mr. Trump. One of the three rules of the Universe is: “Don’t steal from Mr. Trump.”
Then there was the strange and murky case of Left Hand Enterprises LLC. In May 2016, after Manafort joined the campaign, and before they fired Corey, the campaign operated on two separate budgets. Corey oversaw the funds in one, and Manafort managed the other. Soon after the campaign hired Manafort, his budget quickly cut successive checks totaling over $700,000 to a newly formed Delaware company that was supposed to provide direct mail to Nebraska and Indiana. Whether or not the mailing found its way to those states, or to any other location, is still up for debate. What is known is that Left Hand LLC had a mailing address at a farm in Virginia that just happened to be the voting residence of Manafort’s former business partner.
The complete story of the Left Hand incident has never been fully resolved. But the amount of $700,000 for a mailing that no one knows for sure ever happened is something that a guy with the initials DJT will not soon forget.
