It's All One Scandal

Newly released documents show that the Ukraine scandal is not a separate scandal from the Russia/Mueller scandal.  Needless to say, Paul Manafort was at the center of it, and he appears to be the source of Trump's bonkers theory that Ukraine secretly "framed" Trump by stealing the DNC emails and releasing them to....Yeah, it gets fuzzy there.

Not a week goes by when it doesn't get worse.  Not a week goes by where that seems to matter to the GOP.
