A defiant effort to exonerate himself in the Trump-Russia saga also looks like a campaign to raise money and sell books.
By DARREN SAMUELSOHN 12/05/2018 05:07 AM EST
Defying the advice of pretty much every defense lawyer in America, Roger Stone wont stop talking.
The longtime political adviser to President Donald Trump gives lengthy interviews about his role in the 2016 presidential election. He writes combative op-eds about Robert Mueller, who is investigating him. He invites reporters into his home for open-ended hangout sessions.
Its all part of a pre-emptive counterattack against the special counsels Russia investigation, which many legal experts believe is inexorably closing in on Stone.
And if you didnt know better, you might think Stone is enjoying himself.
Several times in a typical week, the flamboyant self-described GOP dirty trickster vehemently denies being a 2016 middleman between WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange and the Trump campaign a subject Muellers team is carefully examining. Along the way, he cheerfully insults Mueller, denounces the Deep State, attacks the media and ridicules such enemies as Dumb-Fatman (Steve Bannon).
