Before the election:
I would draw your attention to the fact that Manafort shared detailed data about Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania and Minnesota --- the battleground states that delivered the 77,000 voted that put Trump over the top in the electoral college.
Coincidence? Oh sure. Nothing to be suspicious about in any of that.
After the election: the deliverables:
Honestly, this is just so bad. They all knew by this point that the Russians had interfered on Trump's behalf. And Manafort had helped them.
Again, maybe not beyond a reasonable doubt but certainly high crimes and misdemeanors. Whether Trump knew or not makes no difference. If he didn't he should have. And the cover-up shows he probably did.
