No, he'$ very $mart.

It's too bad we couldn't find out what he and his family's net worth was on day 1 of his presidency and be able to compare with what they will be worth the day he leaves office.

Did you hear about the pre-dawn raid where the Feds busted into Paul Manafort's house and left with a bunch of boxes?

There's a number of ways that raids can be carried out. Sometimes they are mid day with a knock at the door.

Breaking down a door while the occupants are sleeping is pretty severe. Whatever Mueller showed the Federal judge who authorized the raid had to have been extremely compelling.

The jury is out until Mueller inverstigation is over. He's also requested additional bodies to help with all of the work. I'm assuming there's quite a bit there.

Or it could be for an entirely different case. This is not even a warm gun, let alone a smoking one.

Cool story. Still breathless speculation.

You're impossible. Mueller is leading the Russian inverstigation. Manafort is Trump's former campaign manager who has direct ties to Russia. A pre-dawn, break the door down raid authorized by a Federal judge.

Yup, could be just about anything.

It's all part of Trump's 5-D underwater chess game.

The only thing the raid is evidence of is the raid itself. I'm just not willing to make assumptions based on partial evidence. Guess it's a generational thing.

This story has been flying a bit under the radar. Three CEOs from major corporations (Intel, Merck, Underamour) have resigned from the president's councel in the past couple of days.

With past presidents whenever this would happen it would have a negative impact on the company's stock because investors would get nervous as to why.

Intel, Merck, and Underarmour's stock all immediately went up.
