Now that the courts have initiated charges regarding felonies I think different avenues will be taken.

Figures

That's like when you try to fix something that keeps getting worse to make in to even more worse problem with the wrong tool.

No its more nonsense from the left!

It’s nothing.

LOL if facing prison time he will tell all...

Nope. Move on. Everything is gotcha with you, but it never happens. It’s embarrassing

Wow just telling him to hang on, that he will get him. TALKING ABOUT OBSTRUCTION OF JUSTICE. ABC CBSNews CNN FoxNews

Stone looks like the Batman villain The Penguin.

Yes trump does witness tapering by tweets!

Yes it is.

So basically our president is saying there's something Roger Stone knows that he could testify about but won't? Isn't that sort of an admission of guilt right there? I mean if Trump is innocent why the hell would he care if anyone testifies?

Roger Stone has no guts or balls he looks quite feminine

Experts... LOL

Donald Trump is a Thug Criminal and is there, anyone, that he knows that isn't also

There is no trial going on you hacks. Just an investigation that is meant only to persuade public opinion. Everyone can have an opinion. It’s called the 1st Amendment.

This is like Goodfellas. Bunch of scum underworld criminals thinking their smarter than everyone. Look at the people Trump surrounded himself with. Stone,Corsi,Flynn, Manafort,Bannon,Miller, and loans from a money laundering Bank. This will be a great movie when it's done.

If this is note worthy then change the president we have to set a precedent that a president isn’t above the law

When will MSNBC fake news media tell the truth? Listen and learn.

No it’s not

So if Roger Stone is issued a subpoena he'll ignore it? Isn't that in and of itself a crime?

No one cares if Trump TV is triggered.

Until he does flip on him. Then he will call him weak.

This guy looks like an evil mastermind

No because Stone it already made his decision before Trump weighed in

Guts is all you can think of as Roger Stone refuses to tell the truth about king realDonaldTrump ? Where is your moral compass mr Nixon? Where is the idea of protecting the constitution mr mc carthy? Where are you standing there as an example of courage and fortitude mr adolf?

Thats okay, Roger Dirt will have to play in mud in a 5x7 Cage with Big Cliffer the Stone crusher doing 25 to life for lying his !% off to the Fed.He better hope trump kiss him before he kick him out of his bed Like Cohen, a long hot relationship gone bad over flipping over.

No, it’s common sense

Don’t care what Trump has to say! His words mean nothing!

Yeah and Cohen said “he would take a bullet” for Trumpo. When he faces spending the rest of his life hanging with Manafort in the slammer he will flip like a shit pancake.

Enjoy prison!

Wow. Does that mean Stone will ignore a court ordered subpoena? If yes, a warrant for an arret would be issued. As usual, Trump makes an ass of himself publicly. Stone knows better. More pandering to the Trump base.

Trump loves those who are loyal to him but hates those who may be loyal to the country instead of him. We have some POTUS on our hands. First do the mental evaluation on him, then take the findings to rid us of him.

Roger Stone the human freak show and close associate of the trumpster bragged about his association with Assange to get his fifteen minutes of fame and now trying to convince us that he doesn’t even know his name.

How is that tampering? Now taking someone to a secret place, paying them a ton of money to not testify; THAT is tampering. You all are a special kind of stupid.

This is Impeachable enough already

Witch hunt continues!

Its free speech

On any other planet other than the Bizarro one we’re currently living in, yes.

Impeachable.

Witness tampering! Really! You're implying fake news again!

Liberalism is a disease.

No one is asking for his testimony because.... he’s a target!!!!

Hope he likes orange jumpsuit his time is coming

YES BUT THE Evidence Keeps Pooring In .

President, to uphold the law, makes a comment about someone having guts to not testify basically against him? Trump is his own worse enemy. Guilt is stamped on his forehead like a scarlett letter 'G'.

Just more proof hes guilty

Is Stone’s gut smarter than your gut and most peoples brains!!! LOL!!

NBCNews it sounds like witness tampering

Grasping at straws, MSNBC.

This citizen thinks it is witness tampering

No. This is just one hell of a reach. Nice try though libtards

I do recall Cohen saying he'd take a bullet for trump too but 💩 gets real when you're facing a bid! Roger ain't really about that life.

Pardon!

It's witness tampering, obstruction of Justice and treason all rolled into one.

That’s because stone has devastating information that would sink trump and his family, so Prince Rabadash needs to keep stone happy with public praise and support. If stone turns then stone gets trashed. The same goes for manafort.

Stone will fold no matter how much infatuation he has with The MAN from the WH who doesn’t play with Bob or Ted, but just with Carol and Alice.

This guy is holding all the cards, he knows everyone's secrets. This is the most dangerous demon .

Another day another attempt by Liberals and MSNBC CNN to make up a crime that Pres Trump didn’t do

Obstruction of Justice again

Trump most likely is tampering and also remember what Trump says about having 'guts'.

I'm waiting on Mueller because every time the Dumbass decides to slap his gums about the investigation,he gives more information to Mueller. A lot of people are going to prison.

Lying again FAKE NEWS MSNBC. Trump is praising Stone for not caving to Mueller's threats of years in prison if he doesn't say what Mueller wants him to say. At the end of this Charade Mueller is the one who may very well be spending time in prison.Nothing Legal about his Tactics

No it's not.. Problem solved.

He's attempting to influence a witness. Just another day in Trump mob land. And Roger Stone should beware of Trump, he will turn on him like a snake just like he's treated his other so-called 'friends'.

Lol. No. Remember when MSNBC was a news agency? Yeah, neither do i.

Ironic the person elected by electoral votes. A president with whom we have given stewardship of our nation who pledged to uphold the Constitution & rule of law. Blatantly sez out loud - good job! don't cooperate, your a 'real' man. No one sb rewarded. It's shameful

allegations, speculations, n smoke (a.s.s)-fake news. a.s.s. is all fake news media have against trump. to date, there is no evidence of wrongdoing against trump. everything r all a.s.s., business talk is a crime, tweet is a crime. everything is a crime for trump.

morgfair Witness tampering

one sociopath to another

I bet there's a lot of behind the scenes action going on. Trump will be doing what he can to save his own neck.

Would it matter. He never pays for the consequences of his actions

penndragonArt The scary thing is that 68k people actually liked his tweet! maga

Umm donald?... You're on the wrong side of right.

You will spend the next 6 years being trivial. Congrats.

True Tweet: 'President Trump publicly praises Roger Stone for having “guts!” to not testify against the president. Is that witness tampering? Agenda-blinded, Godless, U.S. and Trump-hating, self-appointed experts, with degrees from communist leaning universities, weigh in.'

'President Trump publicly praises Roger Stone for having “guts!” to not testify against the president'. This is at best a misrepresentation and at worst a blatant lie. What Roger Stone said is that he is not willing to lie for Mueller.

Hold his ass in contempt.

I do recall Cohen saying he'd take a bullet for trump before Mueller got in that a$$! Guy's like Cohen & Stone ain't real gangsters!

No stupid, it’s not. It’s him exercising his rights. Is it witness tampering for Schumer and these other people to talk about it all day every day?

Having the guts to “not compose a fake story” to please Mueller and his vendetta

You are the Enemy of the People

BenMastaitis Witness tampering will be the least of his problems when all is said and done.

Stone will be the best salad tosser in the history of the Federal Department of Corrections. Stone cold salad.

LOL. I even heard one person to go as far and say it was possibly dangling a pardon out in front of him? These people are truly crazy

Can't believe anything this bum says

Of course he hailed him, another liar in his circle. Being the top liar in the world makes him want to only affiliate with others like himself.

Do you remember when he said that about Flynn, Cohen, Manafort,...

morgfair Lois Lerner plead the fifth, so did everyone else

Yes... it’s tampering

This is like hearing the White House oval office tapes of Nixon. Just instead he does it in the open and on twitter. He doesn’t understand what he is actually doing to himself. But it is indeed glorious!

Roger darling, look around, the light at the end of the tunnel is an oncoming train. Donnie doesn't give a damn about you now & surely won't give a damn about you when you're behind bars. Wise up, tell the truth, save yourself. With a friend like Donnie you don't need enemies.

How do you say this is NOT witness tampering. Kellyanne couldn't spin her way out of this. You are Individual 1 speaking directly about/to a co-conspirator BY NAME! At its absolute best this is witness tampering. At its worst...obstruction of justice.

Ohhhh I bet they are. But has STONE been CALLED TO witness I hadn’t heard that ? Can’t get him on it if he hasn’t been called to testify.

You have to kidding

The guy can speak. He's allowed.

'Experts weigh in' from MSNBC is the same outcome as 'CNN Analysis by.........' THIS IS WHY YOU SUCK AT NEWS!

Follow the money trail. And find out how much the president decided to pay Roger stoned to defend him!

morgfair President Trump, aka National Mob Boss, speaks.

The President of United States of America praising someone for breaking the law. Who knew it would ever come to this?

As a single statement, it’s one thing, but hundreds of such statements? Starts adding up, no?

Still spinning the truth I see

Not much longer before the Witch Hunt is ShutDown...

Not in the world of mafia.

Slow news day? YAWN..

Get over it Trump won. Your candidate lost.

Roger stone is the man!

If Stone is called to testify, he perjures himself if he lies. I'm sure he will testify against Trump to save himself from jail.

Guts nope! pardon yup!

Oh, geez wiz. What now?

The dominos are falling Donny!!!!!!

No matter how ya spin it,it's criminal

hope both Trump and Stone get 'full and complete' sentences for their illegal activities...like Trump wishes upon Cohen - what's good for the goose....

Trump hopes he gets off ScottFree! What a numpty.

How is that witness tampering? MSNBC is digging real deep.

If he's innocent what's the difference, why does he care, why does he need to say anything at all about who testifies or doesn't testify?

Yes Yes it is

Your hate for our President is going to make your hair fall out, and give you ulcers. For real!

It’s a witch hunt.

AKA - guts means pardon

Stone is a troll take a good look

See how a few months behind bars will change his mind

Yes

How lovely. We should reserve a double cell for them in prison. And Trump can have Stone's face tattooed on his back. Resist

Really think about this. He praises him, not for having the courage to be honest with the government, but for his cowardice in not speaking with law enforcement about the various crimes he and the president collaborated on. Lock them up.

is it true that SC Mueller was involved in the uranium deal and that he personally delivered some to Russia? wikileaks was the end all be all ..remember when liberals loved them busting Bush...they busted Mueller and the media ignores it

Why care about testimony of not guilty? It’s so obvious he is guilty of something.

If this isn’t interfering with a investigation... grounds for impeachment!

If it was normal joe, he would have been arrested tried and convicted

It sure is witness tampering and they should both be charged.

Thank God for Donald Trump! MAGA!

Another false innuendo by MSNBC meant to deceive the public. No legal violation here.

Well, they’ll stone you when you walk all alone They’ll stone you when you are walking home They’ll stone you and then say you are brave They’ll stone you when you are set down in your grave But I would not feel so all alone Everybody must get stoned Songwriter: Bob Dylan

Too bad the Donald doesn't read.

😂😂😂PMSNBC at it again. You guys aren’t tired of this yet? It’s been 2 years of “gotcha” that never materializes. Come on, you’re looking ridiculous.
