Roger Stone’s Sentencing Smile

There was a very disturbing and creepy photo in the paper today of Roger Stone, his wife, and another woman in his party arriving at the courthouse for his sentencing.  They are all smiling!  Like they were going to a party.

And why were they smiling?  Because they knew that one way or another, he will not serve any time because his friend, Donald Trump, will commute his sentence if he is not retried and found to be innocent.  Trump has made that very clear.

So the judge’s tongue lashing was all for naught.  It taught him nothing.  He didn’t even listen.

That is the state that this president has brought our criminal justice system to.
