20 miljoner dollar är väl inte ens en piss i Nilen jmf med de extra kostnaderna för tRumps golfande varje vecka?
För alla oss som önskar att Muellers utredning leder fram till åtal mot tRump, kan man förstås vara lite besviken eller iaf otålig. Dock måste man väl säga att det har hänt en hel del annat. Den här listan är nog ändå rätt så imponerande:

Through July 2018, the Special Counsel has publicly initiated criminal proceedings against 33 people—six U.S. nationals, 26 Russian nationals, and one Dutch national—and three Russian organizations.Etc.
Nu verkar jag ha missat poängen med Muellers investigation riktigt rejält, jag trodde man skulle visa på "russian collusion"?
Alla åtalspunkterna (nästan) verkar ju gälla finansiella brott?
Jag kopierar in Manaforts brott nedan, det handlar ju om olagliga transaktioner och penningtvätt, + att han haft en utomäktenskaplig affär.
Citat:
Manafort's first trial on 18 criminal counts began on July 31, 2018. In that trial, Gates testified that he committed tax-evasion and embezzlement crimes with Manafort.[386] Under cross examination, Gates also admitted to an extramarital relationship funded with money embezzled from Manafort.[387] Manafort was found guilty on eight counts (covering filing false tax returns, bank fraud, and failing to disclose a foreign bank account), but a mistrial was declared on the remaining 10 counts due to a single juror harboring reasonable doubts.[388]
During his second trial, Manafort pleaded guilty to two counts: conspiracy to defraud the United States and witness tampering.[389][390][391] He further admitted to the remaining charges against him, agreed to forfeit several properties and accounts, and agreed to full cooperation with the prosecution.[5][392] Manafort has reportedly met with prosecutors nearly a dozen times. But in late November it was reported that Manafort is not being as forthcoming as FBI investigators want and that they are "not getting what they want" from him.[393] The reported breakdown in cooperation followed the firing of Jeff Sessions as attorney general and the appointment of Matthew Whittaker, a critic of the Mueller investigation, as acting attorney general.[394]

Nu blir jag lite nyfiken, vad var Muellers mandat till att börja med?
Vad skulle han egentligen utreda?
Kan något av detta länkas till rysk påverkan vid valet eller Trump (vilket jag trodde var det som skulle utredas) eller kommer det mer?
