And some were most definitely Trump associates. Flynn and Manafort in particular. I suppose you could argue that some of the others were actually associates of Manafort and not Trump, but they were also members of the Trump campaign.

Or is this one of those "it depends on how you define associates" type of things?

I don’t know about the terminology. But it is clearly a politically motivated attack on the president that started without the slightest evidence and appears to be ending with the same. The “crimes” discovered were all inconsequential other than the one money laundering charge which frankly, in not likely to end with a conviction. Although, it could.

The DNCs civil action is just more nonsense because this is coming to a close and they can see they need some crap to get them through the election.

If it isn’t a witch hunt, I don’t know what is. They don’t find anything so they start up a new discovery process to try to reuse the same fake dirt as election fodder.

Remember, the entire premise was that Trump had committed wrongdoing. Else, there would have been no Mueller. I think Mueller has done an honest job and he could still have something on Trump, but it is hard to see that at this point.
