What a weasel this guy is. It is no wonder why he has been a longtime friend of Trump's.

*At 19 years of age, Stone donated a check to Nixon's opponent signed as from the Young Socialist Alliance and then gave the receipt to the press.

*He started a lobbying firm with Manafort in 1980 that would cater to human rights abusers: "[We] lined up most of he dictators of the world we could find; pro-western dictators, of course. The good ones."

*Organized the Brooks Brothers riot to disrupt the Florida recount.

*Threatened Eliot Spitzer's father in a profanity-laced voice message. He claimed it wasn't him and that he was at a movie at the time (which wasn't even playing that night :lol:) Even Trump called him out on it: "They caught Roger red-handed, lying. What he did was ridiculous and stupid."

*Apparently he helped bring down Eliot Spitzer after talking to a prostitute at a swingers club. (which, hey, if that is your thing I am not one to judge, but you can't get much more hypocritical than when you try and bring down a politician for sexual misdeeds when you are hanging out with prostitutes yourself).

*Stone became the campaign manager for a madam in 2010 (once again, hypocrite).

*Stone is quoted in his book Stone's Rules, "Admit nothing, deny everything, launch counterattack." How apt is that quote in relation to the last couple of years?

*Stone is quoted in a tabloid article about Ted Cruz's supposed extra-marital affairs: "I believe where there is smoke there is fire."

Yes, Mr. Stone, I agree. Where there is smoke there is fire.

That's a good list but it's incomplete. One could easily break the 5000 character limit on DP posts if his entire history of illegal and violent acts was put down as record. Fortunately it is all available online.

I'll match your democrat crap sheet on Stone with a republican crap sheet on Clinton:

Clinton Body Count

Rather deplorable the Right attempts to minimize perjury. In the age Trump integrity amounts to zero.

Thanks, integrity is the was the word I was looking for.

Scrappy = no integrity. People who have none surround themselves with people who have none either. Is it any wonder that Trump likes sleazy, immoral cons who operate in the grey area between legal and illegal. He fits right in with Trump's M.O.

In this case it looks like he crossed the line one too many times. Hopefully referring to him as a 'con' will soon have another connotation...

Trump long ago figured out that the colossal liars the Modern Morons claim one set of rules but often play by another, and he decided that he being no chump would play as others play, not by the rules that they speak, not by the lies that they speak.

I like that.
