Maybe instead of whipping up a pdf like Manafort that requires trust in the authors copy/paste & editing process it would be better to see the real email conversations incl. message headers. Not saying this isn't how it unfolded but this isn't <evidence> either.

Why go through the trouble of creating a pdf from different emails (he calls "letters") when he could just save the messages verbatim as plain text incl timestamps & other metadata. This sure smells like nonsense.
