"SNIP....
The Nixon Foundation distanced itself and the disgraced former president from Roger Stone, who was indicted by special counsel Robert Mueller earlier today.
Said the statement: This mornings widely-circulated characterization of Roger Stone as a Nixon campaign aide or adviser is a gross misstatement. Mr. Stone was 16 years old during the Nixon presidential campaign of 1968 and 20 years old during the reelection campaign of 1972
Mr. Stone, during his time as a student at George Washington University, was a junior scheduler on the Nixon reelection committee. Mr. Stone was not a campaign aide or adviser.
....SNIP"
There is no respect among criminals.
(Full discolosure: I am not a Nixon fan. My favourite movie is "All The Presidents Men". But I tend to buy into the last thing I have read as a dyslexic and did read the Nixon biography in the 1990s that whitewashed him and I bought into that for a few weeks).

So except for Nixon being dead, and Stone never being President, both are cut from the same cloth.
