Mueller wants to deal at sentencing. He knows this trial has no connection to Trump.
If Manafort had dirt on Trump, he could have plead guilty to a lesser crime, probably probation.
As Judge Ellis said, this whole trial is about squeezing Manafort to make him flip.
Funny thing is DOJ looked into this and passed. If Manafort is acquitted, Mueller has nothing to show for all his work.
Manafort is still scheduled to go on trial in D.C. in September.
Manafort will NOT be acquitted......they put him in SOLITARY Confinement......he will be found Guilty....Mule Face will make sure of it!
