Manafort family business defends name as infamous cousin sits in jail

A recent press release touting Manafort Brothers' 100th anniversary boasts the firm "is still led by the strong moral and business ethics of the Manafort family."

The Manafort name has been a familiar one in New England politics and business for decades, creating a predicament for the family as the 69-year-old former attorney is scheduled to be sentenced Thursday. "I could almost count on one hand how many times somebody has asked me what the relationship is," he said.

"I'm good copy," Paul Sr. told the paper in 1980, the same year his son founded the Washington lobbying firm Black, Manafort and Stone. They called Paul Sr. a family patriarch and said he had helped build the company and its"sterling reputation." They distanced Paul Jr.'s actions from the legacy of his father, calling them"wholly unrelated."

Fiction. Who’s buying?

What about the Podesta brothers. I didn’t see you talking about them.

With one major blemish.

😂😂😂😂😂

Oof. Manafort brothers needs a new press agent

There are ethics and there are ethics. The Manafort family ethics are on the flip side of the ethics coin.

One bad apple.......

MrsPsp You forgot what it said at the end of the press release: “Ow who the hell are we kidding”.

That very well may be, but thanks to Paul Manafort’s crookedness and crimes, the name Manafort and the word ethics will never go together...

Oh yeah...THATS a great way to promote the name 😂😂😂😂

Is Paul connected to that business in anyway? Or are you saying sins of the... cousin should affect others?

That there is just damn funny. And wrong.

Lock him up!

Opinion | New York to Trump: Your pardon wouldn’t keep Manafort out of jailOrdinarily, society’s interest in seeing the same person prosecuted by two different courts for the same conduct is low. But this is a special case. NBCNewsTHINK Thank god NBCNewsTHINK These two cases just prove that there is two justice systems in America. One for rich white people & another for the rest of us. 7.5 years (-9 months served & more off for good behavior) for defrauding banks, working for foreign gov'ts, just wrist slaps. NBCNewsTHINK With a pardon and good lawyers Paul Manafort could make bail, fight the Manhattan courts for several years- and potentially win the case. Don’t count the old snake out just yet! He’s kept quiet about crimes that Trump has committed and now he wants his pardon.

Trump's 'sitting in Vietnam right now fuming' that Republicans didn't defend him at Cohen's testimony: Chris Christie“Someone needs to defend the president of the United States here,' Christie said. They tried. They made fools of themselves trying. This is the thanks they get? No wonder Cohen turned on Trump - he's got a gratitude problem. LOL Poor Donnie The Republicans were not there to defend Trump. They were there to get information. They failed miserably.
