I'm thinking Manafort is gonna walk


The jury's not gonna like Manfort one bit but I bet this jury hangs fairly evenly based on the questions from yesterday and the govt's huge reliance on a slimeball who admitted to multiple crimes of dishonesty now saving his own skin. Govt will re-try, of course, but I'm not feeling a conviction this go-round. As for rolling, then Manafort himself becomes the slimeball saving his own skin and Mueller is a smart enough guy to know how some juries view that - not to mention Manafort may not have anything on DT like you said, or that what he has may be too little, too ambiguous - too something - to pursue. No way to know if an offer of proof was made by Manfort and rejected by Mueller.
