Former Trump campaign adviser Roger Stone said that he met with a Russian man during the 2016 campaign who wanted President Trump to pay $2 million for damaging information on Hillary Clinton.
The Washington Post reported Sunday that Stone met with the man in May 2016, in a meeting set up by Trump campaign aide Michael Caputo. The meeting was previously unreported.
Stone told the Post that the man had requested Trump pay $2 million for dirt on Clinton, but that Stone rejected the offer.
You dont understand Donald Trump, Stone said he told the man. He doesnt pay for anything.
Special counsel Robert Mueller is now investigating the meeting, Caputo told the Post.
Both Stone and Caputo, who did not reveal the interaction to congressional investigators, alleged that the man, who called himself Henry Greenberg, was a FBI informant.

Pfft. He could have spent a day reading FR and gotten more, cited with sources, all for free, rather than paying some Russian scammer.

Sounds like the FBI — if they can scam you out of $2M, that’s great. And then they can put you in jail because you fell for their scam. Fabulous.

Mueller is investigating what? Just more evidence that there was no collusion.
Now starting to believe that "FBI moles" during the Trump campaign were Russian double agents. (Paid for by the Dems).

I’d believe Pravda first.

Getting dirt on your opponent isnt a crime.

The title of the article is very misleading, it was the FBI posing as Russians. Big difference.

Keep an eye on this Stone guy. I think there are some big surprises he is going to bring.

Its past time to set up some stings on Mueller. That's been done. Just waiting for the right moment to kneecap him.

If thats true, the Deep State tried to frame Trump before the election.
He didnt take the bait.
