Not a Trump person so I never heard of this guy. So what happened, did he have an ego as big as the Donald? I don't think it's related to any of the current news going on. Sounds internal.

unpossible
I don’t think this is any big deal. People will come and go at these campaigns.

Way too early to know. Trump will of course say he fired him, Stone will claim he quit.
Maybe his advisors have been running his twitter account. In which case firing whoever is rage tweeting is a good idea.

roger Stone is a body, builder, pervert. Trump should never have had him on the team.

Mr. Trump wants to keep the focus of the campaign on how to Make America Great Again,"By criticizing Megyn Kelly and her line of questioning?

Stone apparently has the email in the Politihoe link that he showed to family that he sent Trump.
Correspond that with Trump saying “Roger used the campaign for personal gain?” I’m wondering exactly how that would happen.
But it’s big news. He’s the first of the major candidates to have a top level adviser leave. It didn’t say if he was moving to another candidate. That will be interesting if and when that happens.
I have advice for the Donald: Please bring in Bay Buchanan (aka the Kiss of Death for any campaign).

Roger Stone has been around since the Nixon years. He’s another one of these eastern establishment types. In other words, a RINO consultant/hired gun who advises anybody for the right price. Trump did well to jettison that loser.

Roger is a longtime eccentric in the NYC GOP world. Always something of a loose cannon.

Robert Costa @costareports 19m19 minutes ago Trump just called @washingtonpost again. Said, "I want to surround myself only w/ the best and most serious ppl. We want top of line pros."
To: 9YearLurker
lol, anything to defend the Donald, eh? He was good on team Donald, but now is a RINO.
Details are still coming out, but when one person “quits” and the boss says their “fired” I think it’s clear what happened.
Stone’s been fished out to go to work for another campaign. If I had to guess, I would say he will be on Carly Fiorina’s staff by the end of the week. I think he called her staff after Thursday looking to join.
It could be another campaign, but Carly’s seems like the most probable destination for him.

Good for Trump. You assemble the team you need. Don’t be afraid to make changes.

I didn't realize he was Trump's top advisor. Here are some highlights from his Wiki:
Stone and his wife Ann found the group Republicans for Choice in 1989.
In 1995, Stone was the president of Republican Senator Arlen Specter's campaign for the 1996 Republican Presidential nomination.
In 1996, Stone resigned from a post as a volunteer spokesman in Robert Dole's campaign for president after The National Enquirer wrote that Stone had placed ads and pictures in racy swingers publications and a website seeking sexual partners for himself and his second wife, Nydia. While he does enjoy frequenting "Miami Velvet," a swingers club in Miami, Stone initially denied the report.
In [the 2004] election, a blogger accused Stone of responsibility for the "Kerry-Specter" campaign materials that were circulated in Pennsylvania.[28] Such signs were considered controversial because they were seen as an effort to get Democrats who supported Kerry to vote for then Republican Senator Arlen Specter in heavily Democratic Philadelphia.
In January 2008, Stone founded Citizens United Not Timid, an anti-Hillary Clinton 527 group with an intentionally obscene acronym.
Stone endorsed Governor Gary Johnson's presidential campaign in the 2012 Republican primary.

Roger Stone used to do talk radio is 2011 in support of Donald Trump running which he never did then. Last week the guy bashed the liberal republicans on CNN and idiot Geraldo chimed in bashing Stone. The two fought on twitter. Geraldo said he would kick Stone’s ass. That was all I heard.
