Discussion: After Manafort News, Trump Unloads On Mueller: He's Doing 'TREMENDOUS' Damage

1 Like

Really the only surprise in those tweets is that he doesn’t mention The Big Golf Club Controversy.

Iike it when Mueller is back in the news. He has to know something to say that Manafort is lying, and must be prepared to prove it to the judge for sentencing.

Did he dictate that one? Does he really say Dot Dot Dot Dot?

So many questions.

Why is the set back for Manafort a trigger for him? Could it be if Mueller knows Manafort lied, then Mueller may know other things in relation to those lies? Is this an indication that that Donald felt comfortable with Manafort’s situation, seeing it as settled but now it has become a hornet’s nest? Is He no longer sure that Manafort will play the good soldier? Did Putie chime in and scold Donald terribly? Did some tectonic moment occur here that we are not seeing yet?

“where he is only looking at one side and not the other”

But the other side is not what Mueller was given to do. And I am not sure what that side is any more.

dear donald: If you don’t want to be prosecuted for lying to federal investigators, don’t lie to federal investigators. I know not lying is a really difficult concept for you, but that’s a problem a 71-year-old can solve.

Oh, please, please, please be hasty and pardon poor Manafort…

Indeed, it is almost as if Trump wanted Manafort to lie, needed Manafort to lie, and that if Manafort did not lie something terrible would happen.

What that was exactly I am not sure, but the question in broadest terms answers itself.

…and there it is, the rage tweet tell. Do not play poker with Mr. Mueller even if you think you’ve got someone looking at his cards.

Only 3 dots after the 2nd tweet, all other twattles had 4 dots before and/or after. This means something.

One hundred years from now, the three dot conundrum will be discussed in depth, was this the sign, the moment it all changed? Or simply gas?

Tremendous damage is being done by you tRump not Mueller.
What’s on your schedule today, anything or is this yet another tweeting fest day?

This was posted elsewhere on TPM, but it deserves repetition.

Hey, Dummie, this is what you’re dealing with. You’re f*cked.

I real on a site called the Empty Wheel that Mueller knew that Manafort was lying the whole time and coordinating with Trump. Those answers that Trump just provided in writing all written by him align with the lies Manafort has been telling.

If he convicts Manafort for lying to the feds on the same lies Trump just submitted then it gets ugly.

Can we stop covering tRump and his angry gang of assholes twitter rants? It gets old, let’s hear more about how tRump is flaunting the law on emoluments, obstructing justice, etc. It is a given that tRump will rant on twitter about everything, so it really isn’t news, the news is the fact that the GOP (granted a large portion of them, but not all, are in the angry gang of assholes) does nothing to attempt to rein him in. I shudder to think what the media would be reporting if these tweets had come from Obama

For someone who professes his innocence and that Mueller is conducting a ‘witch hunt,’ Donnie sure sounds and acts guilty as he seemingly is about to blow a gasket. May it be so…

Trump is a shameful demon, but consistently the finest salesman we’ve ever had as President. Imagine using twitter as the main communications tool of state, from an unsecured device and succeeding (as far as he has)!

It’s ALL messaging! “Witch hunt”, “Gang of angry Dems”, “Fake News”!! Of course he’s a diabolical criminal and moron, but he can certainly focus and relentlessly SELL his ideas. If only he’d been on the Obamacare rollout team, it would’ve been as popular as ice cream in summer!

emptywheel speculates that the written answers may have been guided by manafort sending information to the white house, but no one outside of the white house or SC’s office knows what’s in those written answers.
