on his own is delusional. Dump is a control freak, and there is no way he would let either of his male spawn speak for him. And as for the daughter, not much more. He was supposed to be in thrall to her, and we now see that she has very little influence on his actions, if she in fact even speaks up to him. The son in law seems to be the chosen one, which will make it all the sweeter when he turns Dump out to the authorities. I believe Dump himself was in the meeting; there's a reason that any and all meetings were in Trump Tower; Dump has total control of the tower, and it's comings and goings. That's what he demands, total control, that how he's done business for 40 years. If he wasn't right there in the room, he was on the other end of Manafort's phone.
