Roger Stone: I Wasn’t Fired, I Quit, Trump’s Losing Grip on Reality
Mediaite ^ | 08/08/2015 | Ken Meyer

Reports have emerged that Donald Trump has given the “you’re fired” treatment to his ally and adviser Roger Stone. However, Stone said that he was the one who called it quits with Trump, saying that his constant feuding is distracting from the core issues.

Trump told The Washington Post‘s Robert Costa that Stone would dispute how the split happened, and indeed, Stone said he was the one who called it quits. The real estate mogul insisted that the move was a result of Stone not being a serious contributor to his campaign, while also citing the publicity his statements have recently received.

A Trump spokesperson reportedly told MSNBC, “we have a tremendously successful campaign and Roger wanted to use the campaign for his own personal publicity.

You’re just mad that Citizens United Not Timid won’t be able to be used against Trump next week.

Whoa, wikipedia says this Stone guy is a member of the Libertarian Party. Dude has a website:

As for whether Trump fired him or Stone resigned first, I just hope if he was fired, Trump pointed his finger at him and said “Roger, you’re fired”.

Roger Stone and his wife Ann found the group Republicans for Choice in 1989.

He's been a friend of Trump's for over 30 years...birds of a feather.

Do you find it odd that neither Jindahl nor Rubio have citizen parents, not even one citizen parent, but nobody ever questions their eligibility?

Another pimp of the election industry (probably has never held an elected office at any level) bites the dust (until he latches onto another campaign)!

That is not the test. The test is what land are you born on. Obama was born in kenya? Can’t be president. Right? Article TWO. It is called “ Natural Born”. It is going to SCOTUS. We lose!!

“When one surrounds themselves with “yes men” they are unable to take criticism without lashing out because they aren't used to anyone questioning them.”

Another sane Freeper! Good! But when this Trump madness will stop?!?! Who in his right mind can remotely think that he is a viable candidate?!?!

Cruz was a citizen of the U.S. at birth by virtue of his mother’s citizenship. He did not have to be naturalized. I don’t see the problem.

Marco Rubio and Bobby Jindal[edit] From Wikipedia

Marco Rubio (born 1971 in Miami, Florida), a Republican United States Senator from Florida, and Bobby Jindal (born in 1971 in Baton Rouge, Louisiana), the Republican Governor of Louisiana, both announced in 2015 that they were running for the Republican Party's nomination for president in the 2016 election.[129][130] Taitz and Apuzzo each have stated that neither Rubio nor Jindal is eligible because both were born to parents who were not U.S. citizens at the time of their respective births,

The reason Trump won’t talk about core issues is because he can’t. Making a complete ass out of himself is more than enough for some people, including far too many posters on this website.
