About oleg and their connection. i think there are three things important quickly. the first one is the redactions the other day manafort s lawyers inadvertently shared with all of us in the public. remember, there s this claim polling data was shared and it was believed it was shared with garaposca. now back to 2014 where in an e-mail he s telling one of his russian-based lieutenants that if he needs private briefings on the trump campaign, we can accommodate him. he says that in squljuly 2016, o weeks before donald trump becomes the republican nominee for president. what in the world exactly is manafort doing offering a russian oligarch, considered the soft power of vladimir putin, private briefings on trump s ....
Construct these e llaborate pla, and he will join them up. he will just blow it up, that is what he does. the trump family organization was not built for the highway, it was built for the back streets, it is just not meant for this level nap is why it is so hard. that is the best articulation of why it is all crumbling. i think what the president will face is multiple committeeing and chairman that will not be playing around. this is really serious. and it is not clear to me that the president bringing on multiple more attorneys is what will help him here. the president is willing to blow all of that out. ....

Public damage may represent as grave as a threat of the legal threats. i have the same thought toxt read that in the mueller finding, to read that in the abstract language of he direc d directed, he ordered, he caused this to happen, that s one thing. but to hear cohen describe the orders he used, the conversation he had, perhaps some phrases exactly as he said them or had the president describe his relationship with stormy daniels, there s so much he can say about what came out of the president s mouth that s going to potentially have so much more impact than just seeing them written in a filing. and it s possible there are more recordings. absolutely. we know there are more recordings. we don t know they re all pertinent. we don t know what s on them. but it s quite possible and even if they are not, there s cohen s recollection as nick said of conversations, of settings, of phraseology, everything. it makes it so much more real. ....
