Why does Trump surround himself with criminals?
Are there any of his cronies left who are not either in prison, on their way to prison, or under investigation?

Yeah, it's Trump's fault that Cohen cheated on his taxes and that Manafort did too and committed other crimes two years before he started working for Trump.
Psychopath.
But maybe you mean like top Obama FBI official Andrew McCabe,
who is under criminal investigation?
Or any of the other eight top Obama officials
about whom Devin Nunes issued criminal referrals?
Or James Comey
who signed four illegal FISA warrants and who is almost certainly under criminal investigation?
Or Jim Brennan, the head conspirator behind this coup?
Or the Obama officials
who many times illegally leaked classified information, every one of which is a felony?
No wonder you've fled the board.
