If they predate Manafort's involvement in the Trump campaign, then this is another tempest in a teapot situation. Unless the indictment provokes Trump into doing something that negates his (air tight at this point) chronological alibi.

Can you imagine the WLB bragging about how important he is? "I know Vladimir Putin, bigly. He grabbed my pussy."
