Twitter's Funny Reactions To #ManafortMonday Are Proof It's Mueller Time
On Monday, federal charges were brought against former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort and his business associate Rick Gates, the first targets of a likely larger investigation led by special counsel Robert Mueller.
Reports of coming indictments leaked Friday, and the citizens of the internet waited anxiously all weekend ― dressed as killer clowns and “Stranger Things” characters ― to see just who was involved and what crimes they’re purported to have committed.
Early this morning, it finally happened. And here are some of the funniest Twitter reactions to #ManafortMonday.
I haven't been this happy on a Monday since November 7, 2016. #ManafortMonday

Paul Manafort and George Papadopoulos are the only the beginning. Hell is about to comb over.

Paul Manafort just agreed to turn himself in to the FBI. What should we report on?
CNN: Manafort
MSNBC: Manafort

If collusion is fake news, I guess Manafort, Papadopoulos, and Gates fake surrendered to fake FBI and were taken to fake jail #IndictmentDay
