He's doesn't like the idea of spending the rest of his miserable life in a Federal prison.
I'm thinking this all will accelerate from here a bit.

(19,118 posts)I don't think he will, he's too close to Trump and they've been paling around for 4 decades. These guys have dirt on each other so deep they'd both get life in prison if either spoke up.

(32,095 posts)I'm guessing the reason Mueller hauled him in first was that he understands that. Manafort already sold out his country. He wouldn't think twice about selling out Trump, too. Especially if it meant less time in the federal pen for him.

(58,785 posts)These people can't be trusted as far as they can spit.
Which must pose occasional problems because none would dare turn their backs on the others either.

(12,448 posts)especially when loyalty means long prison time for him. No matter how long he's been BFFs with Dump. I say he flips.

(17,984 posts)He might just flip to save himself if he already sees Dotard is going down.

(13,081 posts)Unless the Mueller team is playing a truly excellent long con.
The problem is, knowing Putins history, if Manafort flips theres an excellent chance he falls down a stair well and lands on some Russian bullets. Club Fed seems a better prospect... BUT thats also a reason to play a con as long as possible. Even if he has flipped, seeming to face 60 years might keep him out of an assassins crosshairs.
