(CNN)Donald Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort said Thursday the FBI's statistics on crime should be viewed skeptically since the agency recommended that Hillary Clinton not be charged for her use of private email.

CNN's Jake Tapper asked in an interview why the campaign emphasizes fears of rising crime levels even though FBI data shows a drop.

Manafort replied: "People don't feel safe in their neighborhoods. I'm not sure what statistics you're talking about."

"The FBI is certainly suspect these days after what they just did with Hillary Clinton," he added.

1. Good for CNN. They make a story out of Manafort gaslighting Taper.

2. Jake Boy does his best to carry water for the Rethugs.

So now our FBI is compromised by some Clinton Conspiracy,who would have thought.

3. Of course he throws shade at the FBI

he's a Putin shill after all.

4. So the Law & Order Candidate's campaign chairman...

doesn't believe in law and order.

5. Good point.

6. If rural whites don't feel safe in their neighborhoods or in suburbia it's because of rampant drug

use that is now overtaking them (heroin, oxy, meth). POC don't live in their neighborhoods. I do believe white on white crime is on the increase. A few cities have reported uptick in violent crime but basically violent crime has gone down since 2009. Pundits should call it like it is but they won't.

7. Wonder if he will feel the same way with Trump University. Trump is a con.
