Phil Mud on Trump: The Government is Going to Kill this Guy


This week, on The Lead With Jake Tapper, a panel was assembled to discuss Paul Manafort’s investigation into the Trump campaign’s ties with Russian officials.

Watch the video below to decide for yourself whether Mudd meant it literally:
