TrumpPutingate III: the beginning of the end

Judge orders Paul Manafort moved to Alexandria jail - The Washington Post

A federal judge in Alexandria has ordered Paul Manafort moved to that city’s jail to prepare for his upcoming trial on bank and tax fraud charges.

Former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort filed four motions Monday night asking a federal judge to prevent special counsel prosecutors from bringing forward some evidence and arguments during his fraud trial.

First, Manafort's lawyers want to stop the government from presenting evidence about whether Manafort or the Trump campaign colluded with the Russian government.

Further, Manafort believes the court should preclude the special counsel from bringing up evidence or arguments connected to the charges in the Eastern District of Virginia case.

Manafort's legal team also wants the the government not to be able to use his detention before trial to suggest he's guilty of the obstruction of justice charges against him for witness tampering.

Lastly, Manafort asks the court to stop his Foreign Agent Registration Act (FARA) attorney, Melissa Laurenza, from testifying, saying that their conversations are covered by attorney-client privilege. Prosecutors for the special counsel announced at a hearing in May that they would be calling on Laurenza to testify

I wonder if Trump realizes that he is a traitor or has he just rationalized it to the point he just shuts out all the people warning him that he has been compromised. Does not want to admit it. Even to himself.

I wonder if you realize just how silly you sound when you toss out words like "traitor" in these conversations?
 
Waiting on the new Russia conspiracy that's happening right now to get dropped in here.

Which one of you Muh Russia guys is it going to be?

Pathological, narcissistic liars and sociopaths often believe their own lies given time and repetition.
