http://www.slate.com/blogs/the_slatest/2017/03/05/longtime_trump_adviser_roger_stone_calls_critic_a_stupid_ignorant_ugly_bitch.htmlBy Daniel Politi
Roger Stone, the political consultant and longtime adviser to President Donald Trump, went on a Twitter meltdown on Saturday night, sending out vulgar and misogynistic tweets to critics. Some of those tweets have since been deleted but others are still in his account, suggesting he doesnt regret his entire tirade. Stone was Trumps top political adviser until the then-candidate fired him (he denied that was the case and says he quit). Regardless, he remained a confidant to Trump, as the Washington Post described him and has since published a book on Trumps campaign for the presidency.
The political consultants night of horrific Twitter messages began when a Twitter user who identifies as Caroline O under the handle @RVAwonk, asked Stone if he knew what libel is in response to him pushing Trumps assertion that he was the victim of a wiretap operation by Obama. Bring it! Would enjoy crush u in court and forcing you to eat shit-you stupid ignorant ugly bitch ! he wrote in the since-deleted tweet.

Stone then directed his misogynist anger toward anti-Trump Republican strategist Ana Navarro: "Really? @ananavarro is fat, stupid and fucking Al Cardenas. He seemingly doesnt regret that tweet because its still up.

The personal attacks then continued against journalist Yashar Ali: go fuck yourself, u talentless asswipe.

Not satisfied with the public aggression, Stone went private. Fuck you, you politically correct asswipe, he wrote in a direct message to Ali.

Yelling at critics on Twitter is apparently a Saturday night well spent, according to Stone: Just nothing better than calling out liberal jerk offs on Twitter. We won, you lost. You're done!

In the middle of his personal attacks, Stone also admitted that he enjoyed a back channel to Wiki Leaks Julian Assange during the campaign. Stone did delete that tweet but he has made the same assertion before, saying in a TV interview that he had back-channel communications with Assange regarding the release of hacked messages from Democrats. On Saturday night he repeated that claim on Twitter: Never denied perfectly legal back channel to Assange who indeed had the goods on #CrookedHillary.
If Roger Stone is so sure his actions during the election coordinating with Wikileaks were "perfectly legal," why delete this tweet? pic.twitter.com/pA72zi9R46

Stone is one of several Trump allies who are allegedly under investigation for possible ties to Russian officials. He has repeatedly said investigators wont find anything. Sure theyll get my grocery lists, they may get the emails between my wife and I, but heres what they wont getany contact with the Russians, Stone told CBS News.
A new documentary about Stone, titled, Get Me Roger Stone is set to premiere at the Tribeca Film Festival next month before moving on to Netflix.

She seems halfway rational.

about people in the same manner.

Just cannot resist the bully taunts and loudmouth bluster that nails them in complicity. Did they never hear that silence is golden. Or speak softly and carry a big stick?

(100,038 posts)11. Roger Stone obviously has a screw loose.
He's as dangerous and deranged as Bannon. He needs to be in a straight jacket behind padded walls.

You'll slip up and say something incriminating one day.
