  1. He pardoned him for one reason and one reason only. Blackmail. If trump didn’t commune his sentence, stone would have rolled on him. It is a partnership. Not a friendship.

    1. Stay Hungry what’s does this statement have to do with anything fool he suppose to be a shinning example but all he’s proven is America has been bought and sold to corporations have bought this country and most of you are too blind to see it

    2. Unless you mess with a statue, then its 10 years. Lying to congress, reaching out to foreign adversaries for help… no biggie!

  2. The corrupt clown strikes again, Trump’s whole presidency is covering up and protecting his criminal deeds.

    1. @Stacy Jaye The Democrats tried with impeachment, but Republicans protected and enabled their clown king.

    2. The US needs a new constitution, this one is full of wholes and Trump is taking advantage of that. As did the NRA and others before.

  3. Yet ppl want to say tht Trump did nothng wrong wen from Roger stones own mouth comes the truth tht he didn’t turn on trump ..
    …can u turn on someone if u DNT have criminal information on then….nope…..

    1. Is this because trump thinks he’s not going to be around November, so he’s doing it now..
      November is no guarantee for him.

    1. Oh he is law and order alright..as long as you’re a minority you’ll see law and order!

  4. The blatant corruption of Dump & the GOP doing absolutely nothing to control him is horrendous.

    1. If GOP planned on free and fair elections they’d be doing something about him. He has kompromat on most of them. RNC servers were hacked too, and stone was part of the whole mess

  5. Americans should have understood that when Trump made the 5th Avenue Gunman statement he was stating his supremacy over the law.

  6. When the leaders of a country have impunity against wrongdoing and prosecution, or the system of checks and balances is easily bypassed because it is a toothless dog, then you’re living in a capitalist, false democratic dictatorship. We have one vote every four years, that’s it and even that is under attack by the republicans under trump.

  7. Trump knows all roads lead back to him, I would say that is a guilty conscience at work but then Trump doesn’t have a conscience

  8. Someone tell me the good lawyers have saved up a few unprosecuted crimes so that after the pardons and commutations are done, and the mac mansions are full of the corrupt scum counting their money, fresh indictments will be made.

  9. And while we think of the Roger Stone debacle, we are forgetting that Russia fired bounties for American soldiers……

  10. And what else happened? He is distracting us with his “cognitive test” and Barr continues to assault DOJ. We are just about ready for the fork here.

    1. And don’t forget Barr fired Burman who was dealing with this case and others relating to Trump. Stinks doesn’t it?

  11. Next time Trump says he’s the president of law and order someone should ask him if it isn’t the president of crime, fraud and corruption!!
