Looking back on history, who was treated worse, Alfonse Capone, legendary mob boss, killer and Public Enemy Number One, or Paul Manafort, political operative & Reagan/Dole darling, now serving solitary confinement - although convicted of nothing? Where is the Russian Collusion?

Traitor Twit is twittering-scared totally makes my day! I am guessing the realities of life in prison is finally starting to sink in yet the sensibility of STFU on twitter is still escaping him which is just hilarious. He is still tweeting nonsensically! Just love this!

Orange Man tried to look smart and failed.
Alphonse Gabriel Capone, sometimes known by the nickname "Scarface", was an American gangster and businessman who attained notoriety during the Prohibition era as the co-founder and boss of the Chicago Outfit.
