Those who know Trump and Stone say they’ve had an up-and-down relationship over the years. They think Trump is likely to grant clemency because of Stone’s loyalty, his omerta-style silence and his defiance of Congress and the Department of Justice. They also think Trump won't want to let Stone's conservative friends down by allowing him to go to prison.
Stone advised Trump during his first flirtation with a presidential bid ahead of 2000. He promoted a potential Trump candidacy in 2012 and was part of the 2016 campaign early on before the two had a falling out. Then followed a rapprochement and the allegations — denied by Stone — that he served as a liaison between the campaign and WikiLeaks for the release of emails hacked by Russian intelligence to damage Hillary Clinton.
Other friends worry that Stone could meet the fate of his former lobbying partner and longtime friend, former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort. Manafort was also convicted and imprisoned after the election and did not receive clemency from the president.
Is Gaetz the secret adoptive son of Stone?
Gaetz needs to go! He’s a disgusting human being and should be in jail for his multiple DUI’s!
Can we vote Florida out of the union?
The face of another Con Man 😡
You can always count on Matt Gaetz & Donald Trump to side with criminals Roger Stone belongs in prison - and so does TraitorTrump VoteOutTheGOP RepMattGaetz realDonaldTrump FloridaGOP HouseGOP GOPLeader
Was he Roger's Secret Santa at the Christmas party?
MarkSZaidEsq realDonaldTrump will rue the day he pardons this despot. The man was convicted. As is the case for anybody else, he should face the consequences imposed by the Court.
Trump was gonna pardon his criminal friend anyway
MarkSZaidEsq RogerStone has been a GOP Operative for decades and he was found with ‘terrabytes’ of data. Its been a year and we still dont know what was there.
MarkSZaidEsq mattgaetz What dirt does Roger have on you Matt? Is it about the roommate? Or the ‘adopted’ Cuban son? 🧐
Sure, pardon him. Fresh ammo for Joe.
Matt is setting a terrible example for his “son”, Nestor.
Well, we know trump’s proclivity for Friday night dumps and scandals...maybe buy some extra popcorn 🍿
LOCK HIM UP.
MarkSZaidEsq Ah. Gaetz is a proud boy. Just another one of Roger's dogs
Contemptible and disgraceful = mattgaetz
If he does it AND Trump wins then there will SURELY be another impeachment fight in his 2nd term. This is DEFINITELY impeachable.
He will be pardoned on the 14th
MarkSZaidEsq Sounds like Stone is Nestor's actual financial sponsor.
Donald wants someone to ‘pressure’ him so it looks like he’s doing it because others want it done too!
RepMattGaetz realDonaldTrump on June 1 channeled RichardNixon and declared “I am your president of law and order.” Trump
The Penguin id about to be caged.. no only joking pardon in 3..2..1..
“Fellow GOP House members” aren’t used to standing up for their base so of course they’re uncomfortable. Matt Gaetz is the best member of the house - legalize marijuana and end the wars
Gaetz is used to whining to his dad to make his DUIs go away, so it's no surprise.
DrainTheSwamp said realDonaldTrump ONLYTHEBEST said the liar. Seems he spends quality time helping flunkeys who have broken the law get out of trouble. What does that say about his associations & judgement ? RogerStone has dirt on Trump. QuidProQuo to silence him.
Stone needs to be in jail...NOW
Belongs in prison..
Stone will not serve a day in prison. Watch.
