Roger Stone: Trump commutes sentence of former adviser saying he was victim of 'hoax'

A commutation would not erase Stone's felony convictions in the same way a pardon would, but it would protect him from serving prison time as a result.

Stone, for his part, had been open about his desire for a pardon or commutation, appealing for the president's help in a series of Instagram posts in which he maintained that his life could be in jeopardy if imprisoned during a pandemic.

What happened to America. Once a democratic country admired by the World. Now a Dictatorship admired by no one. Trump now Dictator, judge and jury and warmonger.

How's 'draining the swamp' going, Mr President?

About time the Clintons and pals were locked up

The liberal tears right now are so delicious they taste like ice cream. 🤣🤣🤣🙋‍♀️🇺🇸

But if he believes it was a hoax why hasn’t he pardoned him rather than commuting his sentence?

👏👏👏👏

Celebrity ego in charge of such a prominent and powerful nation, a calamity, but don’t worry Kanye is in the running next. America in a nutshell

Good man.

How does a hoax produce enough evidence to convince a jury of guilt?

United States of Fraudsters.

Every president has commuted the sentence of a political ally. Trump may be an absolute moron but he's not different in this respect

Absolutely pathetic

Go Trump

Roger Stone's 'felony convictions' will forever hang around his neck in spite of this presidential commutation, which for me is just a respite as it doesn't make Stone walk head high on the streets. President Trump was smart enough not to have invoked his presidential pardon.

US President orange man has commuted the sentence of his former adviser Roger Stone saying he was the victim of a 'hoax'

Stone is innocent, that is all.

Bill Clinton commuted the sentence of Susan Rosenberg who received a 58 year prison term for terrorism, Susan Rosenberg is also the co chairwoman for Black Lives Matter!!

Not surprising. But...remember...criminals usually continue criminaling. He'll be arrested in the future for something and WILL serve time.

Hey ! First time for everything . He's right. Trump is a Hoax.

There wouldn't happen to be an election coming up?
