What about Roger Stone, does he look like hes about to burn here? MSNBC anchor Chris Matthews asked. Does he look like hes going down?
He does, Dilanian replied.
And also, physically, he doesnt look well at this trial. Hes walking around the courthouse kind of unaccompanied, shambling around, he continued. He doesnt look like a happy warrior, which is usually his persona.
Thats perhaps thats because the evidence, Chris, is overwhelming. He really doesnt have much of a defense except, Oh, it doesnt matter or Dont take Stone too seriously, he didnt know what he was saying, he didnt have criminal intent. But the prosecutors have him dead to rights, they have documents that refute his testimony, Dilanian explained.
But the most interesting part of this trial, Chris, is how the prosecutors made Donald Trump a character and they made clear even though they go to work every day with Donald Trumps portrait on their wall they made clear whats at issue in this trial is bad conduct by Donald Trumps campaign that Roger Stone lied to cover up. They said over and over again the reason Stone lied to the House Intelligence Committee is because the truth would look bad for his long-time associate Donald Trump.

To be honest, I think he's always looked creepy, especially with that smug, arrogant sneer. And that's with his clothes on, with no view of his Tricky Dick tattoo.

Somebody better hurry here.
Or maybe they can get matching outfits with Manafort and they can become The Three Amigos Redux.
What a cabal!
