1. Money Talks, Bull Feathers will walk

I think his B$ will be walking and not talking up an appeal. Time to pounce, a "Billionaire" who can't post bond of half a Billion. Guess we can needle him about this and his invisible tax returns and his tax cut for the super wealthy while leaving ticking tax hike bombs for the rest of us.

It's long past time that he was exposed for the liar he is and faces both the legal judgments and the humiliation - but will his deluded "supporters" listen?

A..."small swing "....is totally correct in my point of view.

Which would make him extraordinarily compromised for any government office.
Just one more thing for Republicans to ignore.

Trump needs money and all of a sudden Manifort is back in the picture? Might Trump be looking for a way to get his hands back in Putin's pockets? Sounds like a job for Paul!

10. I would put nothing past him now that he's this desperate and we know that he believes he's above the law

And bringing Manafort back in sure signals he's planning something illegal.
