Oliver Stone: Charges Against Trump Are 'Ridiculous'
Barron's ^ | 03/13/24 | Jordi ZAMORA

Maverick American director Oliver Stone told AFP that the legal proceedings against Donald Trump are "all political" and that the ex-president was a victim of "lawfare" -- when prosecutions are used to silence political figures.

"Almost 100 indictments against the guy... it's ridiculous," said Stone.

"This is all political. They want to put him behind bars, but they're not going to be able to," he added.

Every now and then Stone pops up with some kind of rational comment. Unforunately it's only every now and then.

Oliver Stone has been pretty consistently against what he perceives as the Deep State establishment. ==

Of course they are. That’s the whole point. Destroy your opponents with absurdities, lies, fines, lawfare, mockery, and calamity. Do it using the power of the state, and they will hold cocktail parties in your honor while receiving your honorary Doctorate degrees. It’s how the Beltway shoves Alinsky down our throats every day.

15 years ago if someone had said Oliver Stone will be on our side and Taylor Swift would be against us, no one would have believed him.

20 years ago he ran against the law. He has regained his sanity. Who has not been in his place?

“Oliver Stone has been pretty consistently against what he perceives as the Deep State establishment.”

Very true, as one cannot be more against the Deep State than telling the truth of how the Neocons destroyed Ukraine, but he did just that...

It’s the real America haters that believe that the fart-left, turd rollers’ trumped up charges against Trump are legitimate. People get that way from doing way too many recreational drugs while watching the retards on late night TV.

He also did a couple of documentaries on Russia and Ukraine.

He's not a Zeeper.

They’re calling him a Maverick because he employs common sense and reason.

These days that’s probably an accurate use of the label.

Oliver Stone is an interesting filmmaker. So liberal often and then times like this, he comes across as sincerely illuminated and enlightened.

I still can't believe he co-wrote the screenplay for Conan the Barbarian with John Milius. Oh to have been a fly on THAT wall, LOL...
