Stone suffers from the same, sick malady as Donnie, i.e. the need for attention, good or bad, and to be an unrepentant asshole.

You’re saying Trump’s friend, convicted felon Roger Stone used a racist slur? I am shocked.

After the interview, Stone doubled down on his denial by telling the Associated Press in a statement that anyone who knows him “knows I despise racism!”.

Not Michael Cole: “it’s Madden time.”

This is like learning that a man who kicked 50 dogs actually kicked 50 dogs and a puppy.

"Stone added that “the word negro is far from a slur.”

Ummmm, why would you need to add this if you had not, in fact, used the word?

These people are soooo stupid. I am going to party like I’m 19 again when they are gone. (Well, I’ll be doing it at home from the way things look now…)

Why does anyone waste time on Trump’s slut, Roger Stone?

He’s a Proud Boy who despises racism? That’s like being a pacifist moonlighting as a sniper.

I’m still betting Trump will use the real N-word in public before November, especially if Biden nominates Harris, Rice, Abrams, or Demings.

”O’Kelly asked Stone about how his ‘number just happened to come up in the lottery’…”

(Wistfully contemplates that short story in which the whole town stones one resident each year)

Are there not better news stories to cover than the antics of a maniacal convicted felon?
I mean really…
This Stone guy is a grown up version of Bart Simpson. With none of Bart’s boyish charm

O’Kelly knows why Stone jumped to the head of the line.

Howeva, it’s ‘pre Twitter banned’ Stone, so in his mind, let’s ignore that and again ‘see’ Wikileaks as a 1A issue.

It’s as if Trump gives a Palinesqe, absolute turd of an interview with Chris Wallace, and Stone says hold my beer.

Though to be fair, nothing can top the train wreck of an interview Trump gave and which aired today.

Why is the President taking the Montreal cognitive assessment anyway? That’s not part of any routine physical exam. So the conclusion must be that either he has or was suspected as having cognitive issues. We should have the right to know what is happening to the man tasked with and actively making decisions on our safety and the administration of our government.

Ah, one of the good people on the other side. Was wondering when we’d see them show up.

Plus, horribly unfair to have a French test, but at least he aced it.

“Arguing with this negro…” is about as racist an application of the term “negro” as one could possibly come up with. He could have said, arguing with “this guy”, or with “this miscreant”, or anything else… but he made it about skin color.

Also, using the word Negro as a polite form of n*gger, is still fucking racist.

It’s the utter and contemptuous lack of self awareness and restraint that gets me. It seems to be a more regular feature the further to the right people go…

Roger is just channeling his inner old business partner Lee Atwater.

He doesn’t even SPEAK French, that’s how manly and supersmart he is.
