Roger Stone says he will 'testify honestly' when asked if he would consider cooperating with Mueller

Roger Stone said he will “testify honestly” when asked whether he would consider cooperating with special counsel Robert S. Mueller III after he was charged with lying, obstruction and witness tampering in the investigation of Russian interference in the 2016 election.

“That’s a question that I’d have to determine after my attorneys have some discussion,” the longtime Republican operative and friend of President Trump told ABC’s “This Week” on Sunday. “If there’s wrongdoing by other people in the campaign that I didn’t know about — which I know of none — but if there is, I would certainly testify honestly.”

Stone added that he would “also testify honestly about any other matter, including any communications with the president,” but he said their discussions were “political in nature” and denied “categorically” that they spoke about Russia or Mueller’s investigation during or after the 2016 campaign.

“I never discussed these matters with the president, and everything that I did .?.?. is constitutionally protected free speech. That’s what I engaged in — it’s called politics,” he said.

He prosecuted these cases and since then has defended those charged. He says Mueller has a slam dunk case and that Stone’s history of lying makes a deal with him worthless. He says Stone should get his affairs in order, that he will be sentenced for a long term. Only a pardon will keep him out of years in jail.
