Hollywood celebrities suffered a collective meltdown on Friday after President Trump commuted the three-year prison sentence of Roger Stone.
The usual bunch of Trump-hating celebrities came out of the woodwork to accuse POTUS of breaking the law, calling him a “criminal,” “disgrace,” and a “little stinker.”
The White House confirmed on Friday that Stone was now a free man.
“Roger Stone is a victim of the Russia Hoax that the Left and its allies in the media perpetuated for years in an attempt to undermine the Trump Presidency. There was never any collusion between the Trump Campaign, or the Trump Administration, with Russia.”
Breitbart.com reports: President Trump tweeted Saturday morning: “Roger Stone was targeted by an illegal Witch Hunt that never should have taken place. It is the other side that are criminals, including Biden and Obama, who spied on my campaign – AND GOT CAUGHT!”
The commutation doesn’t change Stone’s conviction for making false statements during a 2017 testimony to the House Intelligence Committee.
Stars including Rob Reiner, Alec Baldwin, Mia Farrow, Bette Midler, and Chelsea Handler expressed their disgust with President Trump in a series of angry tweets. But none mentioned the fact that President Barack Obama commuted more sentences than any other president in U.S. history, including Chelsea Manning, the transgender former Army intelligence analyst who gave classified information to WikiLeaks.
Anti-Trump filmmaker Rob Reiner was positively livid on Friday. “You can free Stone, Flynn, fire prosecutors. It won’t help. You’re going down. You’re a Sociopath, a Criminal and a Moron. You’re gonna lose in a landslide then go to jail,” he tweeted.

Actor Alec Baldwin tweeted that he has “no doubt that there are other crimes Roger Stone may have committed.”
I have no doubt that there are other crimes Roger Stone may have committed.
And might be tried for.
After November 3rd.

Star Trek actor George Takei compared the president to the villain Voldemort from the Harry Potter novels.
Just heard that Voldemort released the Death Eaters from Azkaban, too. Frigging 2020.

Actress Mia Farrow concluded that President Trump is only trying to protect himself by commuting Stone’s sentence.
Roger Stone lied to Congress, obstructed justice to protect Trump. So Trump is rewarding Stone’s refusal to testify against Trump – in other words Trump is protecting Trump. https://t.co/JypRjTOLHa

Author Stephen King tweeted that “every time you think the Orange Man has hit the gutter, he bounces lower.”
Trump has commuted Roger Stone's 40-month sentence. Every time you think the Orange Man has hit the gutter, he bounces lower.
