Panic on K Street: The Fall of Paul Manafort:
Manafort or Weinstein or Shkreli. Basically the same story.
Everyone in-the-know, knows it's going on. They know it's not right. They let it happen. Many are doing the same thing. They don't want to shake up the system that feeds them.
Eventually cracks appear, a story leaks outside the group, The public is enraged. Insiders are embarrassed, scared, or pissed. They don't really care for the victims, no, they are scared that they will be seen for what they are, what they do, that they could fall.
They panic and choose a path.
Sometimes that path leads to a flood that brings down not only the perp but other perps and actually changes the system for the better, i.e. Weinstein (maybe?).
Sometimes the prep is just sacrificed for the good of the others, Shkreli.
How will the Manafort thing play out? I'm leaning to the Shkreli option and guessing that we may see a few more sacrificed in the next few months and years.
