Why Doesn't The Very Stable Genius Simply Pardon Stone?

[Mason Michaels]

Here's trump in 2008. My, how the worm turns.

"Stone worked for Donald Trump as an occasional lobbyist and as an adviser when Trump considered running for President in 2000. “Roger is a stone-cold loser,” Trump told me. “He always tries taking credit for things he never did.”

Trump has no friends,narcissis only need themselves

WHICH IS IRRELEVENT TO HIS CALLING OUT THE BLATANT PROSECUTORIAL AND JUDICUAL MISCONDUCT IN THE STONE TRIAL...MIDCONDUCT THAT SHOULD PISS OFF EVERY AMERICAN...

Aw, cry me a river. Stone spent his entire career calling himself a dirty trickster and bragging about how he got one over on almost everybody. (Stone’s rules: “Attack, attack, attack—never defend” and “Admit nothing, deny everything, launch counterattack.”) Stone and you need to suck it up. Karma.

Lots of good stuff out there about Stone, GM. Curb your pity, he doesn't need it.

"Stone served as a senior consultant to Bob Dole’s 1996 campaign for President, but that assignment ended in a characteristic conflagration. The National Enquirer, in a story headlined “Top Dole Aide Caught in Group-Sex Ring,” reported that the Stones had apparently run personal ads in a magazine called Local Swing Fever and on a Web site that had been set up with Nydia’s credit card. “Hot, insatiable lady and her handsome body builder husband, experienced swingers, seek similar couples or exceptional muscular . . . single men,” the ad on the Web site stated.

The ads sought athletes and military men, while discouraging overweight candidates, and included photographs of the Stones. At the time, Stone claimed that he had been set up by a “very sick individual,” but he was forced to resign from Dole’s campaign.

Stone acknowledged to me that the ads were authentic. “When that whole thing hit the fan in 1996, the reason I gave a blanket denial was that my grandparents were still alive,” he said. “I’m not guilty of hypocrisy. I’m a libertarian and a libertine.”

IRRELEVANT TO THE CURRENT , BADLY CORRUPTED CASE..BARR IS ABSOLUTELY CORRECT TO STOP THE BULLSHIT.

IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH STONE.....

[PoliTalker]

Right, no president is going to do something stupid before an election. At the same time, it might strengthen him with supporters who aren't going to vote against him and no Democrats are going to vote for him with or without a pardon. Candidates need to worry about the 7+ million who voted 3rd party.

I agree that pardoning Stone would be stupid. It is stupid because it is wrong.

He has already taken away the power of Congress, and now he is taking the power of the Justice Department for himself.

Having three co-equal branches of government is so cumbersome for a king.

Why? Trump is allowing this to play out in real time to expose, the methods, the tools, and the players involved.....Trump will have to do nothing, all it will take is a declassified connection to the FISA abuse report by the IG. Game over. Anything touched by Muller and Wiseman will be tossed out.

The corrupt players are resigning and running for the hills. The media is simply attempting to draft a script to explain why they are all running like hell.

Precisely.

Horse mierda, Snowflake.

What is worse is that you know it’s horse mierda.

The DOJ was created by an act of Congress and isn’t a separate branch of government.

It is under the executive branch. The AG answers to the President—serves at his pleasure and etc. The only judicial branch of government that doesn’t fall under executive authority is the Supreme Court.

Trump or any president would have to get way, way, out line to do something impeachable under that *constitutional* set up.

Trump isn’t there quite yet.

Hello Darth,

Not in your eyes, no.

Nor in those of the remaining Republican party, that is, the 95% of Republicans who have not been run off by the shameful tweet-shamer.

But that is a minority of America.

A rather outspoken one.

Time to say enough is enough.

You have a good point, though. I got it wrong when I inferred that the Justice Department is one of the three co-equal branches. I can admit it when I make mistakes. It's a good way to learn.

But in order to learn from your mistakes, you have to man up and admit it when you make one.

That is something I have never once heard POTUS do.

Instead, he just lies.

It's so much easier to just pretend you're perfect; especially when you have a party full of enablers.

Anybody who would run for president and fail to vet his team, to end up being associated with somebody like this, is definitely not a 'very stable genius.'

Once a sleazy, always a sleazy! Birds of a feather...

Go, Bernie.

Four more years.

You get points for admitting the mistake lol.

We all make mistakes and that’s an easy one to make. But that means there’s nothing to this. It may be ‘politically inopportune’ for Trump say Barr did the right thing in questioning the unreasonable sentence for Roger Stone.

But that’s it. Trump was well within his authority to make the comment.

[Earl]

I hope that the Gestapos who stormed a 70 year old man and his wife sleeping at 4AM with assault rifles get the boot.

CNN should explain why they knew it was going down.

Who leaked?
