Trump really doesn't know his history. Capone was never convicted of murder or other horrible crimes

Al Capone was convicted of Tax Evasion. Just like Manafort. All those notorious crimes Capone committed or ordered committed were never proven in a court of law.

Just like you and Manafort, he evaded income taxes and went to jail.

Trump, you fucking idiot. The point you made was the exact opposite of your intention. Capone's book keeper spilled the beans and Al went to prison for cheating the government. Sound familiar, you stupid fucking moron.

An incurious, mal-educated buffoon with a tiny grasp of reality and history.

After the events of the last few months, nay, his entire term so far, I'm afraid it will take 40 years to recover from this idiot.

He posthumously acquitted of the charges. By not providing tax returns the ruling stated his 5 th amendment rights were violated for self incrimination. Too bad Donald that technicality was fixed and will not work for you or your friends.
