OK but the payments were made in 2007 and 2009, far before Trump was running for President.

Manafort had/has an international consulting firm and these funds were deposited in said company, not Manafort's pocket per se, because they were one of his clients.

I just don't see the scandal here. I see scandal in just about every other fishy part of this administration, but not this. Maybe someone could explain but this all took place years ago.

I think this is just a confirmation about the payments. He was ousted from Trump's campaign in August due to his involment with Ukraine's government, I believe. 

The unfortunate luck that the Trump campaign made him chairman though. 

I don't think this is a scandal but it's a confirmation of information obtained last year.

That's what I read also when I got the AP alert this morning.

I hope dems/the media don't try to "make" this a scandal because there is actual scandal unraveling in other parts of the admin. and I fear if they try to make this specific part a big deal when it's not it will discredit the actual corruption/collusion claims.
