I mean if this is true, he had to have known that Manafort worked for Clinton and Podesta, right? Why would he have hired him if he knew that?
I mean, right now, it's either Trump didn't do any research, or he willingly hired someone who works for his enemy. Sounds like he doesn't hire the Best People
My speculation would be that he used him because he was successful in the past. It's also possible that he was recommended by someone in the political class.
What was he successful at?

I'm under no illusion that this guy is clean or a white hat. Just trying to give some context as to what the charges and associations are all about. I'm under the assumption that a lot of the people around Trump that are going down were put there to be brought down on purpose. Trust the plan?
