https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-news/roger-stone-signed-stones-771168/ Add one more item to the #MAGA Christmas gift guide. Roger Stone, the “dirty trickster” of Republican politics and former adviser to Donald Trump, has autographed an untold number of rocks and is selling them on his website. “ Here’s your chance to own your very own ‘Roger’ Stone paperweight- signed by the New York Times Bestselling author, legendary political operative and Trump intimate himself,” the listing reads. “LIMITED EDITION. The perfect Christmas Gift for the Trump supporter, InfoWarrior or Stonetrooper. David made good use of a similar artifact against Goliath. Order yours today!” As Stone notes on Instagram, the “paperweights” are being sold to help shore up his legal bills, which are mounting as he contends with a number of legal issues, including a potential indictment from Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s office. Mueller has been scrutinizing Stone’s potential pre-election relationship with WikiLeaks, and whether he may have informed Trump that the organization planned to release Democratic emails hacked by Russia. On Monday, Stone settled a defamation suit brought by Chinese businessman Guo Wengui, who alleged that Stone made false statements about him on the conspiracy website InfoWars. Stone erroneously said that Guo was found guilty of financial crimes in the United States, that he illegally donated to Hillary Clinton and that he financed a presidential run by former Trump campaign CEO and White House adviser Steve Bannon. As part of the settlement, Stone was forced to publicly apologize for making the claims. “All of these statements are not true,” he wrote as part of a statement that will be published in the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal and the Washington Post. He added that he “failed to do proper research before making those statements.” Stone is selling the signed rocks for $8, marked down from $10. Stone told Rolling Stone Wednesday that he buys the rocks from Home Depot, and that his people tell him they should be able to ship by Christmas.
Seems like a rock solid solution to his troubles.
This is a combination of the most hilarious thing ever and the most pathetically sad thing ever. Is there a word for this? Oh yeah, there is! MAGA.
how is this not an onion headline
They are on sale? He sells enough namerocks that he has a standard rate and a sale price?
"Stonetrooper"? Come on that has to be fucking intentionally nazi-like right? I'm not imagining things?
That's just weak entrepreneurship right there. Nobody actually needs paperweights anymore, most stuff is electronic and even when it isn't, nobody's doing piles of paperwork outdoors in the breeze. Low demand, low price. And rocks are relatively heavy to ship, unless they're like pumice or talc or some other low-density mineral. What he ought to do is license his brand to marijuana dispenseries. The slogan, "Get Roger Stoned", just writes itself.
Rolling Stone reports on Roger Stone who is selling Stone-labeled stones. Truly, this is the best timeline.
