LOVE IT!!! MSNBC is asking the Trump campaign the same question I was asking yesterday.

Why is Paul Manafort, who may or may not have taken millions from a Putin-connected Ukrainian candidate, working FOR FREE for the Trump campaign?

This is not usual for a top campaign official.

And the answer they're getting amounts to "That's between him and Trump."

And "the operatives don't matter."

In other words, none of your business.

I think it's most likely the work of THRUSH.

Pssst. I own every single episode of the series, as well as the movies.

runs UNCLE on the weekends and watching an episode every now and then really tales me back.
I wish they'd run THE TIME TUNNEL too.
