They should have told us he was under investigation also at that time we had no way to do an "intense' background check.

Just now on fox grasping.

2. According to WaPo, Lewandowski is one of the people referenced in the Papadopoulos's document

He's the person the DOJ refers to as the "High-Ranking Campaign Official". So............

Emails previously described to The Post indicate that the “high-ranking campaign official” described in court documents is onetime campaign manager Corey Lewandowski. The emails were among more than 20,000 pages that the Trump campaign turned over to congressional committees after review by White House and defense lawyers.

Lewandowski, who was pushed out of his post in June 2016, did not respond to requests for comment.

Papadopoulos wrote to Lewandowski several times to let him know that the Russians were interested in forging a relationship with the campaign, court filings show.

In one email on April 27, 2016, Papadopoulos wrote “to discuss Russia’s interest in hosting Mr. Trump.”

3. He's pissed Manafort took his job as campaign chair. Looking back,

had Lewendowsky stayed in place, there would be no Russia stuff. He and Trump would be sitting pretty.
