Try again Comrade.
Grand Inquisitor Mewler-Torquemada blew his load on Manafort. While the Inquisition persecutes Manafort for acts perpetrated in the 2002-2008 timeframe, Torquemada has been forced to admit that this has nothing to do with Trump.
FURTHER, at some point the Inquisition is going to have to explain how throwing Paul Manafort in a deep dungeon and torturing him while completely ignoring his two business partners, John and Tony Podesta.
It's as if two men go in and hold up a liquor store, but at trial the judge turns to one man and says "I see that you're a party member, you're free to go." then turns to the other and says "you're an enemy of the party, life in prison - no parole"
Look, I get that you Stalinist democrats are not only cool with this, but have worked for decades to pervert the system of jurisprudence to this degree. The whole "some animals are more equal than others" (it's a literary reference, you wouldn't understand) is a cornerstone of the Marxist democrats, but Hillary lost. We still have a Constitution, we still have 14th Amendment guarantees of equal protection under the law.
Trump won, the democrat plan to end the Constitution and establish a socialist dictatorship is on hold. This idea that we let the Inquisition run wild and shit all over civil rights can only be tolerated so far.
Want to throw Manafort in jail? Fine, he is undoubtedly guilty. Want to let Podesta walk free for the same crime because he is a loyal party operative? Bullshit. This idea you Stalinists have of one law for commoners and a VERY different law for party members doesn't cut it.
Same crime gets the same time - Torquemada might be the Grand Inquisitor, but he is not god. With another pro-Constitution SCOTUS justice, there is zero chance of you getting away with it.
The Inquisition will burn Manafort at the stake to squeals of delight from you apparatchiks. But it cannot stand, you do not have the power to subvert the Constitution as you desire, you lost.
