The key issue in all of this is the June, 2016 meeting between Manafort, Kushner, Trump Jr., and purported representatives of the Russian state, where the stated purpose of the meeting was to have the Russians hand over damaging information about Clinton in an attempt to sway the US presidential election. These three men went to that meeting, and did receive and review information.
Bannon's response - this was treason, and why dd they not just call the police? Exactly.
This was obviously a conspiracy against the USA. What Mueller needs in order to lay the charges that will sink Trump is someone who was at that meeting to testify as to what actually happened - rest assured that we do not have the full story yet - and to testify as to what Trump knew about it.
With Gates having thrown in his lot with the Feds, there is now massive pressure on Manafort to turn as well or face would could be years if not decades in the slammer.
Manafort was at that meeting.
Stay tuned.
