So Manafort, chair of Trump campaign, was in Ukraine

the RNC waters down its plank about Russian aggression in Ukraine. Meanwhile, Michael Cohen (Trump’s lawyer) is the money man for the RNC. Manafort and Cohen go to prison around the same time. Rudy steps up and takes Cohen’s job as Trump’s lawyer, and starts taking up where Manafort left off in Ukraine, and the RNC gang is pushing a conspiracy about a DNC server in Ukraine.

I’m starting to think, knowing Trump’s and the RNC’s penchant for projection, that there was an RNC, not a DNC, server in Ukraine where a second set of RNC books was kept, and that if we found it, the whole Republican Party would be exposed.

You may be onto something there. What if all the misdirection to a DNC server overseas is to take the heat off an RNC server stored in one of the Russian Suites at Trump Tower?

Trump knows this and threatens to bring the whole Party down if they don't back him.

I still think there’s something to the Alfa Bank server in Trump Tower story. And, it still pisses me off that The NY Times dismissed it while daily pounding the Clinton email story.

....meant as a parting shot against Ukraine.

I doubt there's any actual server, DNC or RNC, in Ukraine. It's just a bullshit theory.
