Donald Trump just can’t catch a break. Even as he attempts to re-focus on the issues at hand, his campaign still finds new ways to embroil itself in controversy. In the latest headline, campaign manager Paul Manafort has been linked to some damaging documents apparently proving a link between Manafort, Ukraine, Russia, and cash. From the New York Times article:

Handwritten ledgers show $12.7 million in undisclosed cash payments designated for Mr. Manafort from Mr. Yanukovych’s pro-Russian political party from 2007 to 2012, according to Ukraine’s newly formed National Anti-Corruption Bureau. Investigators assert that the disbursements were part of an illegal off-the-books system whose recipients also included election officials.”
