(2,504 posts)I mean the guy that was his "intermediary", never actually had any info or connections. He was just BSing Stone. At least that's what Mueller seems to have believed. Otherwise they wouldn't be using the guy as a witness, if they thought he was lying to them. He also, wouldn't have said he didn't find any evidence of coordination.
Stone was going around pretending he had an inside track to wikileaks but wikileaks publicly called him a liar. This lead to his only private Twitter exchange with the wikileaks Twitter page. In it wikileaks chastises him about lying about working with them.
The real story seems to be a bunch of goofy halfwits conning each other to seem more important than they really were.
Now, the Trump campaign did think Stone had real connections but he didn't. That's probably why Trump obstructed so much. He thought they were colluding! As I said elsewhere it was one bumbling conman conning another bumbling conman who in turned was conning the presidential campaign of another bumbling conman. A Trumpian story if ever there was one.
