Manafort's life is over. He's finished.

(51,608 posts)I was a senior in High School and my friend had tickets for about 30 people but I didn't get one (I lived in Phila and could've gone).
I finally got to see it twice in 2011 and 2012. It was as great as I expected, actually it was better. I am wearing the t-shirt right now in fact. It wasn't a concert but a complete sensory event. It is the closest to tripping that I have ever experienced.

(12,390 posts)One tour operator from Canada, flew into LaGuardia with $10k in U.S.D.
He went home with 200 tix and sold bus tours to the concert.
I saw them all. Zep., Who's last concert with Keith, E.L.O., Stones, Rod Stewart, Elton, Billy The Knack, Dire Straits --- Springsteen and on and on.
The Wall --- all during the first set, there were stage hands assembling a wall, brick by brick. It was completed by the end of the first set. Then intermission.
Second set opens with a hole in the completed wall and Roger sitting on a lounge chair, watching static on a tv (13 channels of shit).
Of course, they broke the wall at the end of the set.
I still have my tour shirt from the concert. It is the only shirt I kept. Of course, I don't wear it.
It shows the cartoon teacher lurching over little Pink. This scene was followed in the show by "Another Brick.."

(51,608 posts)But the two shows I saw recently were the same as the expensive original ones. I know since I have the videos from Nassau. My friends in school all went on one of those bus tours.
Empty Spaces was left off of the album but it is played at live concerts and is included in the Geldof film. The animation is really good too.

(14,492 posts)Let's all remember that tRump - with GOP blessings - quickly dragged all these miscreants into our political system without the first thought of consequences from them being criminals. And, all because it was everyday normal business for him.
Now, American taxpayers are forced to pay millions in legal costs to weed out the rot he brought in, one crook at a time and the wheels of justice turn slow.
Plus, just to turn that knife in our backs reeeaal slow for maximum pain, the invisible billionaires who brought this upon us will be paying far less of their fair share of that bill for legal costs....because Trump.

Hope Im wrong.

(37,648 posts)I doubt they'll give him the whole sentence. They rarely do for rich white connected men guilty of white collar crimes. And then there's his age. And sometimes they can serve their time in a white collar prison. I think that's where John Dean spent his time.
But he should spend the rest of his life in prison, since he wouldn't cooperate, and his crimes were heinous, IMO.
He also has another sentencing coming up, doesn't he?
