Longtime Trump confidante Roger Stone thinks someone close to Donald Trump may have been leaked pages of the Republican nominee’s tax returns to the New York Times.
Stone, who’s been informally advising Trump for months, said in an interview with Boston Herald Radio on Tuesday that the source of Trump’s leaked tax documents “could be somebody who works at the Trump organization perhaps, or perhaps a former employee, but I would just be speculating.”
Select pages of Trump’s taxes arrived at the New York Times building last month in an unassuming manilla envelope, marked with a return address from Trump Tower.
And while Stone heralded Stephen Bannon, the current CEO of Trump’s campaign, as “an enormously capable guy with great political instincts” when the Breitbart News executive was first tapped for the job in August, he told Herald Radio Tuesday that “there is a lot of fighting and I think infighting and jockeying inside the current Trump campaign.”
“It’s not nearly as smoothly operating as the time when Paul Manfort, a true professional, was running things,” Stone said.
Anything Stone says should be taken with a large grain of salt, of course. He played hype-man for Wikileaks publisher Julian Assange’s bogus “announcement” this week concerning Hillary Clinton’s campaign. That “announcement” turned out to be a video celebrating Wikileaks’ 10th anniversary, much to the frustration of Stone’s loyal conspiracists, who for weeks had been expecting an election-stopping “October Surprise.”
Could it be that tRump had an out of body/out of solar system moment and did this himself?
The October Chem-prize will be visible for all.
Just look up in the air.
It’s there! Where? There! Helps if you stare.
The tax leaks are on fleek
IRS is on a chemical streak.
The secret is yours to keep
Or Stone’s to declare from his secret hideaway
And shame on you if you don’t believe him.
Stone— he knows all. All, I tell you. All.
Well, if he can’t keep his own tax return secret (especially with such salacious information), then how can we trust him with national security?
Take that slap, Kellyanne! – you woman, you!!
I happen to agree with him. Someone close to Trump, someone who knows him best, is actually trying to kill his candidacy and probably because they know Trump would be a nightmare and disaster for country and the entire world. For me, the question isn’t why they’re doing it, it’s what else you got? Because if it is someone close to him then I expect a lot more to be revealed going forward.
