Trump Camp Pushed Stone For More Wikileaks Info At Key Moment In 2016

In late July 2016, nobody thought Trump could win.

The Republican National Convention had ended on July 21, and the campaign seemed to be flailing after a fractious confab, with a Republican elite that appeared determined to sit out the rest of the campaign.

But a detailed look at the timeline of the week following the end of the Republican National Convention — from July 22 to July 27 — reveals that amid widespread skepticism of Trump’s presidential bid,

Trump’s longtime friend Roger Stone embarked on a desperate push to get more information on what emails Wikileaks, which dropped its first tranche on July 22, had its disposal.

The push, according to an indictment unveiled Friday against Stone, came after an unnamed Trump campaign official was directed by an unknown person to contact Stone “about any additional releases and what other damaging information” Wikileaks “had regarding the Clinton campaign.”

Thus began a months-long backchannel between the Trump campaign and Wikileaks via Stone.

But one day after the close of the Republican National Convention in Cleveland, it was a different time.

Wikileaks had just begun to publish damaging emails showing the internal deliberations of Democratic National Committee staffers during the 2016 primary. The emails dropped the Friday before the Democratic convention was set to begin the following Monday.

Trump himself and those in his inner circle rushed to highlight the divisions within the Democratic Party exposed by the Wikileaks dump,

just as the party headed into its national convention.

The GOP nominee both scoffed at the idea that Russia was behind the leaks,

while continuing to tout his warm feelings for Russian President Vladimir Putin and

support for policy positions advanced by the Russian leader.

Sometime after the July 22 email release, “a senior Trump Campaign official was directed to contact STONE” about what else Wikileaks had, according to the Stone indictment.

The number of people in a position to direct a senior campaign official — apart from the candidate — is extremely limited.

It is also not clear when exactly that direction was handed down to the official. But “thereafter,” Stone “told the Trump Campaign about potential future releases of damaging material” from Wikileaks, the indictment says.

By July 25, Stone had begun via email hassling “Person 1,”

as the indictment dubs the individual who appears to be far-right conspiracy theorist Jerome Corsi,

about establishing contact with Assange and getting “the pending” Wikileaks emails …

”they deal with Foundation, allegedly.”

Corsi forwarded Stone’s message to Ted Malloch,

a London-based conservative writer, and

Stone’s outreach to Corsi about Assange would continue through late July and August.

During that same initial weekend,

Trump ramped up his promotion of the material released by Wikileaks and

specifically sought to convince Bernie Sanders’ support not to support Hillary Clinton.

"Similarly, there are the parts of Stone's testimony that Mueller chose not to indict Stone over. Stone's defense of himself in the "time in the barrel" matter, in his contacts with Guccifer 2.0, and in his lack of direct contacts with WikiLeaks all resulted in no accusations from Mueller. And, of course, the indictment did not charge that Stone knew about the WikiLeaks disclosures beforehand, or that he was involved in any conspiracy between the Trump campaign and Russia to influence the 2016 election, or that such a conspiracy even existed."

I was watching that -

so Corsi claims he testified to that - when speaking to Mueller -

more conspiracy -

of course we already knew that when the "grab em by the pussy" tape was released -
that wikileaks responded with a release -

seems like now we know Stone was too happy to help with that release -
and a top campaign official was directed to follow up with stone

any further denial from the cult is just "russian tactics" that they will continue to use until the day trump is sitting at the crossbar hotel.

:lol they just raided Stone's places Friday.

When are you saying the report is coming out?

Call your shot.

Also, anyone could say the same for you with Huber and Horowitz. Do you see the irony, TSA?

You deflect from the Russia probe by going to Pizzagate. It’s your white flag, own it.

I bring up that you are a worse conspiracy theory hack than almost anyone here when you try to make fun of someone else for it.

Your whining about it is your white flag.

I discuss the Trump/Russia topic all the time. You shut up about your conspiracy theories out of shame of embarrassment or whatever and it's easy to beat you over the head with it.

Sorry, you shouldn't have been so gullible in the first place. That's all on you.

I mean the big question is if there's nothing to any of the Mueller investigation, why did all those Trump people like to the feds so many times?

I don’t know when the report is coming out but the latest statement from Whitaker really has you shook.

And your comparison of Mueller to Huber/Horowitz was terrible. One investigation has made indictments available to the public and the other hasn’t. It’s cute you still are hoping for a super secret conspiracy charge to drop as the investigation finishes.

He was more shook trying to spit out the sentences than anyone else could be shook by hearing them.

So you're hoping there are super secret indictments that Huber and Horowitz just haven't told you about?

:lmao

That's adorable.

Sorry, weren't you hyping super secret indictments against the Dems before you knew Huber and Horowitz existed?

Yes or no.

No it’s just you being butthurt that you fell for the Russiagate hoax. I laugh and call out all the fake news your fellow believers push and you immediately rush to their defense. Instead of acknowledging they/you fell for another fake news story concerning Trump/Russia you bring up Pizzagate.

How many times have you called out djohn for all the game need he spreads in this thread?

I wouldn't expect much from Huber or Horowitz. They say sunlight is the best disinfectant, but it can also be career suicide, tbh.

That boy is pissy TWOOOOday!

What specifically did I fall for?

This is pretty much going the way I said it would. Remember, you demanded I tell you several times.

According to Mueller’s indictments none of them lied about colluding with Russia during the election. Why is that?

Wait didn’t you say the indictments had nothing to do with collusion? So how then could Mueller say they didn’t lie about collusion?


Boy you dun fucked up :lol

You still think Mueller is saving some super secret conspiracy indictments, or are you backing away from that already?
