Longtime Trump confidante and political consultant Roger Stone said Tuesday that Rudy Giuliani’s explanations of the timeline surrounding a $130,000 payment to porn actress Stormy Daniels were “a little disjointed.”

“His handling of the Michael Cohen, Stormy Daniels matter I found a little disjointed, meaning I had trouble following largely what he was trying to say,” he told MSNBC’s Andrea Mitchell on Tuesday. “I don’t believe Mr. Cohen’s payment, just an opinion, is illegal.”

Stone’s rare criticism of a Trump associate isn’t entirely surprising as reports surface that Trump is frustrated by Giuliani’s wildly conflicting claims about Trump’s personal lawyer’s handling of a hush payment to porn actress Stormy Daniels.

  1. Yeah, and Abraham Lincoln’s last night at the theatre was “a little lead-filled”.

  2. I’m not totally sure we can trust what Roger Stone says about this.

    I think we all need to slow down, take a couple of deep breaths, count slowly to ten, and wait patiently to see what Kellyanne Conway thinks.

  3. I think “Lock Up!” would be a better use of this time slot.

  4. Disjointed?

    Disjointed is when you go to party, eat the mushroom dip and wake up naked in the desert…

  5. If you haven’t, you’ll want to see the documentary “Get Me Roger Stone”: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt6714534/ . Stone, Manafort, others are all there. Fun fact: Stone has a huge tatoo of Richard Nixon on his back. Nixon is Stone’s hero. Go figure. Stone rationalizes his career as being justifiable because he’s made a lot of money. Pure and simple, anything for money. Forget the good of the country, for example. Doesn’t enter into the calculus.
