Now unless dipshit was in on it from the beginning and it's don's con, he was manafart's unwitting dupe. Makes you feel really confident he could negotiate new trade deals.

I admit that I didn't pay much attention during the Republican primary, I just can't take that.

(24,692 posts)7. Trump either does not apply 'extreme vetting' to white guys, does not understand about vetting high
level appointees or vetted Manafort well enough and agrees with his pro-Russia statements and actions (the most likely scenario).
