re: #275 lawhawk

Oh and I buried the lede too (as if it’s possible with that Bloomberg piece).

It’s that Manafort never stopped working with the Trump campaign or admin after the election. He was constantly in contact with Trump and Pence’s inner circle.

A source close to Manafort says he’s in regular contact with the vice president-elect, as well as with Trump’s attorney general pick, Jeff Sessions, the Republican senator from Alabama and a Trump supporter and confidant. (Manafort and Sessions have known each other since the ’70s.) And Manafort is also close with Tom Barrack, the billionaire founder of Colony Capital, who has a spot at the top of Trump’s inaugural committee.

So, for anyone to claim - as Bullshit Spice has done - that Trump has limited contact with Manafort is pure unadulterated bullshit.
