Maybe you all knew this but I didn't realize that Roger Stone [View all]

helped take down Elliot Spitzer. Trevor Noah just mentioned it on TDS. Funny how he can stand by a man who cheats on all his wives, pays off various women for their silence, and brags about sexually assaulting women but sex with a prostitute is just a bridge too far for his sensibilities. Not defending Spitzer but the hypocrisy is amazing.
