3. What's the cost of laundering?
Fri Mar 16, 2018, 04:32 PM

Scores of banks and foreign corporations, partnerships, and bank accounts.

And, as we see from the buffoon-in-chief, thousands of LLCs.

How much money do these operations siphon off in the end. In other words, if Manafort et al laundered $18 million, how much did he end up with? And was this factored in to the payments he received from his so-called clients. Is it worth the trouble and cost to launder what is probably a relatively small amount?

So, take the buffoon's Miami property, which he bought from something like $40 million and sold to a Russian oligarch for $95 million.

Who's doing the laundering? Is trump laundering the money for the oligarch and then get it back to him at some point? Is trump being paid for services rendered above and beyond the price of the house? And once the money gets from the first account to the second or third, is it possible to trace through the scores of banks and accounts?
