Roger Stone: I Never Spoke to Trump About Firing Comey – But He Was a “Little J. Edgar Hoover” (Video)

CNN published a report on Tuesday that former adviser Roger Stone recommended firing FBI Director James Comey.

Trump tweeted out this morning that the CNN headline was just more “fake news.”

On Wednesday Roger Stone joined Steve Malzberg on Newsmax TV to discuss the accusations.

Roger Stone told Steve he never claimed to talk to Trump about Comey’s firing. Stone then added, “Comey was becoming a “little J. Edgar Hoover” and “had to go.”

Stone also tweeted out that he was not the source of the CNN report nor did he urge President Trump to fire Comey.
