Thread 1) According to this poll, you overwhelmingly believe that Mueller knew Manafort was lying when he asked for the extension 10 days ago. The extension was billed as an opportunity to provide information that would aide in better sentencing Manafort.
2) This would have given Manafort (and any other interested party) the impression that Mueller was believin’ the lies and all was well.
3) During this 10 day extension, Trump finalized his answers to Mueller’s written questions and Mueller had opportunity to review them.
4) Today, everyone was surprised that Manafort was caught lyin’ and his plea agreement was revoked.
5) If, as some suggest, Manafort was lyin’ in exchange for a Trump pardon, Mueller saw it comin’ a mile away and gave both parties enough rope to hang themselves. Your thoughts? /end
