Piling On II
Paul Manafort's first trial opened this week on fraud, tax evasion and money laundering. While he appeared at his hearing wearing prison garb he showed up for the trial in one of his $50M tailored suits. (He left the ostrich feathered jacket with his valet) For that kind of money I hope he got two pairs of pants. My only leap of luxury was a two piece plaid velour suit by Bill Blass which I wore to cocktail parties and women couldn't keep their hands off me. But Blass was stingy with fabric in the crotch area. Trump has compared Manafort's treatment to Al Capone but Alphonse had a luxurious cell in the Eastern State Penitentiary in Philadelphia where he did his meditations. The place is now a historic site. They say crime doesn't pay but Paulie will soon find out.
