Manafort Denies Any Fearmongering In Trump's Convention Speech
It's certainly not hyperbolic to say that Donald Trump and his campaign chairman, Paul Manafort have a complex and rather sordid history of collusion with Russian autocrats. It is also not far-fetched to mention some less than kosher affiliations with mob types, for both men.
Manafort the 'fixer' appeared on Fox News Sunday with Chris Wallace to discuss the climate created by his boss's recent nationally televised speeches (oh, wait, they're always nationally televised). Here's a bit of the exchange.
WALLACE: Let's talk about your convention and your candidate. Democrats are pushing back against Trump's description at the convention of an America in crisis. Take a look.
The clip included President Obama, and Hillary Clinton dispelling the claims of an America in crisis and chaos. Hillary also asserted that Herr Drümpenführer has no solutions for any of these alleged massive problems.
WALLACE: Paul, didn't Trump engage in fear-mongering?
MANAFORT: Not at all.
