This was obvious from the way this went down. Mueller got him to do ... something with that 1.5 hour delay this morning. So it's too late for Trump to avoid that testimony w/a pardon.https://twitter.com/DelWilber/status/1040622275735822337 …

Honestly, there is not a way in hell that no reporting team confirmed he was not cooperating. So you knew he was cooperating by the failure of anyone to get clarity on that. Mueller has basically delayed that news until after Manafort already gave them key evidence.

One other thing that has gotten too little attention. Manafort learned what Gates already testified to in prep for the EDVA trial. So he knows that Gates had already gotten Mueller 90% of the way to the Russian conspiracy charge.

Reasons why this is pardon proof: 1) Mueller already got the key pieces of testimony a pardon would thwart. 2) Manafort is subject to civil forfeiture; he loses $46M even w/pardon. 3) The dropped charges can be filed in states. A pardon, at this point, does nothing. Nothing.

So Mueller's day (so far): 1) He just paid for the investigation. 2) He got the witness that EVEN TRUMP has said has the goods on him. It's not even lunch time yet.

Remember, too, that in the wake of the Gates plea, Mueller got warrants for the phones of probably around 10 Trump aides. Manafort will probably get him to more.

Replying to @emptywheel
What else does Manafort's cooperation give Mueller, that he didn't already have via Gates ?

There can't be much that MUELLER doesn't already know and he wouldn't give lowlife MANAFORT a Plea for small details etc MANAFORT is,either dropping a freaking nuclear warhead on THE TRUMP PRESIDENCY or his connecting all the dots with is probably worse for TROJAN TRUMP love it

I think Mueller KNOWS what went down. The issue is whether he has witnesses to prove it, especially since most of his witnesses are lying snakes.
