Trump's Dirty Trickster: The Staggeringly Shady Dealings of Political Operative Roger Stone
There is virtually no depth to which the man some have called "Trump's Geppetto" won't sink.

Here are just some of the things Roger Stone, the longtime Republican political operative and decades-long friend of Donald Trump, did last week: He "confirmed" that Ted Cruz's father was involved in the Kennedy assassination, called for Bernie Sanders to be shot for treason, and promised right-wing nut-job conspiracy theorist Alex Jones that "Trump will destroy Hillary."

The Cruz-Kennedy thing was vintage Stone, and was of course peddled by Trump despite the fact that he was on the verge of sweeping the Indiana primary and driving his rival out of the race for good. Trump later told Wolf Blitzer he did not believe the Kennedy assassination smear even as he was saying it.

While Trump was busy giving his victory speech and commending Cruz for making the contest competitive, Stone was still peddling the “bombshell” report tying Cruz's father to Kennedy's assassination.

“I went over to the sheriff’s department last night,” Stone told AM 970 The Answer host Joe Piscopo last week. “Take a computer analysis of the photo, the facial aspects of the photo, and Rafael Cruz’s photo today, it’s a perfect match.”
