Of course, the commander-in-chief was referring to one of his closest advisers, the self-described “Dirty Trickster,” Roger Stone. Trump tweeted about his friend’s many crimes worthy of seven to nine years in federal prison as a “miscarriage of Justice:”
‘THIS IS A HORRIBLE AND VERY UNFAIR SITUATION. THE REAL CRIMES WERE ON THE OTHER SIDE, AS NOTHING HAPPENS TO THEM. CANNOT ALLOW THIS MISCARRIAGE OF JUSTICE!’
