Terrible day for America
Because a crook with a ton of evidence against him was found guilty?
Yeah, sucks for the country.

He can go back to trial for the ten other charges since they were a hung jury. He's toast.

Guilty on all 5 counts of tax fraud, one of four counts of not reporting a foreign bank account and two of nine counts of bank fraud.
The two bank fraud counts involved him doctoring a profit and loss statement to make himself look better.

keep getting your hopes up. If you want to see big picture you should research how many sitting congressmen have had to pay campaign violation fines. Then think whether they will make a big deal of this. Sorry, bud. This isn’t the smoking gun.

Manafort was always going to be found guilty. Once a federal charge goes to trial, there is a 95% chance the government wins.I always thought he had a pretty good shot of getting nailed on the tax evasion charges. I'm thinking the bank fraud stuff was a bit gratuitous, but since the charges involve intent the government could do a pile on.
This means nothing as it applies to Russia, mainly because there is no real there there. Yeah Mika and Joe will crow tomorrow morning, but someone is going to have to remind him that nothing has come from the Russia probe other than a few indictments of some native Russians for what is essentially hacking some web sites .
Flynn has not been sentenced
PapaD is trying to walk back his guilty plea of lying to the FBI (such a bullshite charge because he did not remember the timeline correctly)
Cohen could be problematic, but it still has nothing to do with Russia and hacking DNC email or Hillary email

Beyond that, he's worked for some of the most evil dictators over the last few decades. If you've ever seen the texts from his daughters, it's obvious that he's an evil, soulless individual.

Don't forget Manafort's other trial next month, for Conspiracy.

Manafort is guilty as frick.
The sad part is he is only going to prison because he worked on Trump's campaign - not because of the crimes he committed. That's where justice has failed.
He will ultimately be pardoned though and he knows it.

45 gonna hand out pardons like Halloween candy? If you think that’s patriotic, you’re a sycophant.
Manafort
Cohen
Flynn
Kushner
Dirtiest presidency in the history of the US.
Jimmy Carter thinks Trump is a joke.

I don’t think he will be pardoned. He needs to do his time.
I have to pay my taxes. So should Manafort.

Amen to that. Manafort is super swampy I’d rather other people like the Podestas go down with him than get a pardon.

Your grasp of US history is something. Something really really bad.

Just glad that all the liberals involved, were given immunity. Would've been a shame if they were held to the same standards as nonliberals.
