Cleveland
There are worse fates than covering a Republican convention, but damned if I can think of any. The traffic is ungodly. The frumpy delegates look like they were tailored by Betsy Ross. The protesters smell like old cheese stored in a used sweat sock. And in the unlikely event you stumble upon an untold story, rest assured it will have been tweeted six ways to Sunday before you can even turn on your laptop.
Then there's the knotty dilemmas of what to wear in these uncertain times: jacket'n'jeans, or full-on suit? Natural fibers or sweat-wicking synthetics in this Cleveland steam bath? In the event that Black Lives Matter snipers make it past security, does Kevlar make me look fat? In matters sartorial, as in so many matters political over the years, I turn to my old friend and serial subject, Roger Stone.
In addition to being Mr. Dirty Tricks, Donald Trump's unofficial consigliere, the nation's preeminent practitioner of the political black arts (he cut his teeth with Nixon's "ratf—ers," proudly sporting a tattoo of Tricky Dick's face on his back) and a conspiracy-minded writer of "alternative histories" (he's written an entire book on how LBJ whacked JFK), the always-dapper Stone additionally pens a style blog, Stone on Style, where he gives detailed instruction.

Wow, that’s some serious sour grapes!
he thinks that his ... work .... just drips of integrity, I’m sure.
I wondered whatever happened to the acerbic Matt Labash. Used to read him on Daily Caller. He’s always fun.
The author sounds a bit obsessed with clothing.
This is coming from the vermin Globalist filth the Establishment Sandard...... Oh I’m sorry I mean the Weekly Standard.
This is the magazine that championed #nevertrump, and doing their very best job to destroy Trump even though Trump has the most votes of a a Republican nominee ever. They are Democratic Operatives wit, “R’s” by their names. They will do everything the can to get the criminal communist Hillary Clinton elected.
Keep in mind too their main guru Bill Kristol whose father was a communist that hung out with Trotsky. Yes the same Trotsky that hung out with Stalin and Lenin.
Because quite frankly, no one is going to read more than a few lines of his garbage.
Why do you even bother to bring this obvious petty man-child here?
Citizen's for Trump Rally a smash today!
The nerve of Trump thinking he should win the nomination just because he won the primary elections....(s)

Funny, I think the delegates look like WE THE PEOPLE.
I’m sure we will receive nothing but unbiased reporting from this author. Rolling eyes
Can I post what I like? Peace!
Of course you can, my question is what do you like about this screed?
I never said I liked it. In fact,it’s nauseating, but a good case in point of TWS. That’s all. Respects to you!
Somebody is trying to be Hunter S. Thompson. and failing miserably.
What does TWS stand for? I guess my point is why even give them hits? It only reinforces them to think people actually care what they have to say. I for one could care less about their stupidity. I’m sure others feel the same way too.
Always a problem with the lefties.
Trying to care.................failing....
I feel the same way about all the Politico crap that gets posted here that intentionally maligns conservatives. Instead of arguing for censorship, I just don't bother reading it or commenting on it.
I might read what they have posted, but never follow through to the site. I guess I am just tired of seeing these kinds of articles and finally spoke out about it.
