    Per Wikipedia. Good enough.

    "In June 2016, when Donald Trump promoted Manafort to the post of campaign manager, Gates went to work for and became the campaign's number two, handling the day-to-day activities of the campaign including taking responsibility for apparent plagiarism in Melania Trump's speech at the Republican National Convention. Gates stayed on as number two in the campaign after Manafort was forced out, and then went to work as deputy chairman of the Donald Trump Inaugural Committee. He helped to form a pro-Trump nonprofit group called America First Policies but was removed from the organization due to his involvement with Manafort's overseas ventures."[8]

    Gates' indictment came down in Oct. 2017.




    What he admitted to? Nope. Those were charges that the FBI had him nailed on. They turned his mouth and memory on.

    I wonder if Manafort ever discussed the Trump Tower meeting with Gates, don't you?

    You respond as if your inquisitor was open minded and thoughtful enough to listen to your responses and learn from them. The problem with the thoughtful middle is that factual analysis, logic, reason and science has no place on either end of the spectrum. And today the right side of that spectrum is overly populated

    A rare Obama policy agreement.

    Shrug, sometimes I do that, sometimes I /rude and tell him to do his own homework. In this case, I can simply put the facts out there and wait for the response we all know won't be coming. Small victories.

    It is like all the great historical rivals of the US: the Confederates, the Nazis and the Russians have formed a "superteam."

    So, that's a "no" to both questions, right?

    Funny how that happens, and it wasn't even here!
