Roger Stone has pal-ed aroung with some world class liars in his time, Richard Nixon, Lee Atwater, Carl Rove, and Alex Jones...just off the top of my head.
And he is quite the lyin’ A-Hole himself, propagating the Michelle Obama “Whitey” whopper, saying Chelsea Clinton is actually Web Hubble and HRC’s love child and placing Lyndon Johnson in The Texas School Book Depository alongside Oswald….
But even such a seasoned prevaricator as Stone knows when he is seriously outclassed, and his comments to The Washington Post, in an article discussing the possibility that drumpf will be interviewed by Robert Mueller (and that, against all common sense, his lawyers are setting up such a debacle), shows that Stone knows that the Menace, in stark contrast to the old saw about our first President, simply Cannot tell a truth…
“However, some of Trump’s close advisers and friends fear that a face-to-face interview with Mueller could put the president in legal jeopardy. A central worry, they say, is Trump’s lack of precision in his speech and his penchant for hyperbole.
People close to Trump have tried to warn him for months that Mueller is a “killer,” in the words of one associate, noting that the special counsel has shown interest in the president’s actions.
Roger Stone, a longtime informal adviser to Trump, said he should try to avoid an interview at all costs, saying that agreeing to such a session would be a “suicide mission.”
“I find it to be a death wish. Why would you walk into a perjury trap?” Stone said. “The president would be very poorly advised to give Mueller an interview.”
First of all, how utterly friggin’ charitable of WaPo to write… “Trump’s lack of precision in his speech and his penchant for hyperbole.”
Bullshit. Trump lies, he doesn’t exaggerate or lack precision, he lies, it’s his go to, anytime someone pushes back at him or in the least way tries to introduce him to anything resembling the truth, he lies, and seems to lack the basic elements of self awareness to even know he is lying, though anyone with an IQ above that of his most ardent followers knows he is lying too.
Stone knows this, and rightly fears for his witless friend drumpf because…
Lying to Bob Muller isn’t a joke.
