CNN’s Henderson: Now Manafort Seems To Be Eyeing a Pardon

RUSH EXCERPT: 

HENDERSON: “Yeah, there’s a lot he knows and there’s obviously a lot that Mueller knows, too, right? Obviously, in conversations that investigators were having with Mueller, something struck them as untrue, in terms of what he was saying versus what evidence they had. I think the big question now going forward, if you’re Paul Manafort, is what kind of sentencing you’re going to get. Right now, obviously, there’s not going to be any mercy. But also, what is the president thinking at this point in terms of possibly pardoning manafort? We know he has pardoned other people like Joe arpaio. He has talked affectionately in some ways about Paul Manafort in the past and said he felt like he was railroaded and treated worse than Alphonse Capone. So we’ll see what he does. Obviously, he at some point essentially flipped on the president. Now he seems to be trying to eye a pardon. We’ll have to wait and see what this president does.”
