The Adam King Show - Roger Stone Discusses Trump’s Path to Victory in ‘24 Aired: 2023-04-18 Duration: 19:13 === Roger Stone's Vision (15:06) === [00:00:00] All right, and we're back from the commercial break. [00:00:11] I gotta say these Matt Baker videos are so funny. [00:00:15] You know, I love the theatrical performances and everything. [00:00:20] This guy's on fire, Matt Baker. [00:00:22] I'm gonna compete against you, Matt. [00:00:24] I'm gonna make some commercials too. [00:00:25] You just inspired me. [00:00:27] And I'm gonna blow it up. [00:00:30] You sit tight, Matt Baker. [00:00:32] Anyways, welcome back, InfoWarriors! [00:00:35] We got Roger Stone coming up. [00:00:36] We got a lot to talk about. [00:00:38] It's going to be really exciting. [00:00:39] If he is ready, we can bring him in. [00:00:42] If not, oh, there he is. [00:00:44] Roger Stone, the man, the myth, the legend. [00:00:48] Probably the most underrated person in the entire Trump apparatus. [00:00:53] You know, Roger, I was thinking about it a little bit earlier this morning. [00:00:59] You might be the most central figure in the future Trump world. [00:01:04] It's not an administration anymore, but I mean, really, what an interwoven person you are into the whole apparatus. [00:01:16] Thanks, first of all, for having me. [00:01:19] It's a little early for me, so I apologize for the bedhead. [00:01:24] But that's very kind. [00:01:26] Look, I think Donald Trump is the most central person in the comeback of Donald Trump. [00:01:32] And what many people don't understand is that He's not a politician. [00:01:38] He'll never be a politician. [00:01:40] He's a political figure, certainly. [00:01:43] But he, unlike, say, George W. Bush, he's not handled, he's not managed, he is not scripted. [00:01:52] He is very, very much his own man. [00:01:56] And that doesn't mean that he doesn't sometimes seek advice from a broad cross-section of advisers. [00:02:04] But at the end of the day, what you see is what you get. [00:02:08] By the way, that's precisely why he was elected. [00:02:12] So those people who over the years have said, oh, I love Trump, If you could just get him to stop tweeting, no, that's actually never going to happen. [00:02:23] He's always going to post his own thoughts on social media, and he's not going to be censored by staff or advisers or anyone else. [00:02:33] That is the Donald Trump that got elected in 2016. [00:02:36] That is the Donald Trump that, in my opinion, got re-elected by huge numbers in 2020 and was cheated out of the presidency. [00:02:45] And that is the Donald Trump that will lead us back to victory again. [00:02:51] You know, you and I, we've had several conversations where I've, you know, expressed a little bit of concern about President Trump and, you know, not I'm not off the Trump train, but I'm looking at the next exit. [00:03:06] And every time we end up talking, I end up saying, no, you know, I got a good seat on the train. [00:03:10] I'm going to stay on the train. You know, I think that the president would do very well bringing you into the administration in an official capacity, unlike in the previous administration. [00:03:22] Would you be interested? If he wanted to bring you in, would you come in and actually serve in some sort of real capacity? [00:03:29] Look, I would do anything President Trump asked me to do, you know, within the law, obviously. [00:03:36] Am I looking for a job? [00:03:38] No, I'm not looking for a job. [00:03:41] And let's win the next election before we form the next— Right now, what I'm seeking to do is to do as much as I possibly can to support him, and that involves mostly attacking his enemies. [00:03:59] I'm very proud of this interview I did at The Epoch Times. [00:04:03] I'm very proud of the interview I did at Newsmax just a couple days ago. [00:04:08] I've known Donald Trump on a personal level, on a personal basis, for 44 years. [00:04:14] I first suggested that he should consider running for president in 1988. [00:04:21] Suggested it again in 2000, when we spent a substantial amount of his money on an exploratory effort to examine whether the Reform Party nomination, which his fellow billionaire Ross Perot was pressing him about, [00:04:38] was worth it. And he, I think, in retrospect, wisely recognized that he would merely split the more conservative vote and guarantee the election of Al Gore, which is something he did not want to do. [00:04:53] So, people are going to have to accept the fact that he's not perfect. [00:04:59] He is flawed, as we all are. [00:05:02] There's only one who is perfect. [00:05:04] He is perfect. [00:05:06] No one else is perfect. [00:05:11] He is still our last best hope. [00:05:13] There is no other candidate out there with the name ID, with the money, with the pre-established following. [00:05:21] And now, with the deep understanding of the deep state, which I think Trump, in the second term, It would be much, much better than Trump in a first term. [00:05:33] And in a first term, he achieved incredible things, considering the quizlings and the traitors that, in some cases, surrounded him. [00:05:43] I mean, the most robust economy in American history, the fastest rate of job growth in American history, the fastest rate of wage growth in American history. [00:05:56] The lowest levels of unemployment among all Americans—black Americans, white Americans, Hispanic Americans, Asian Americans, young, old—it was really a booming economy just a few years ago. [00:06:11] He straightened out and did away with all these one-size-fits-all trade agreements to help us reach individual trade agreements that were both good for our trading partners and good for us. [00:06:23] But more important than any of that, he kept us out of war. [00:06:26] We started no new wars under Donald Trump. [00:06:30] And when he brought our troops home, he didn't leave carnage and death behind, unlike Joe Biden. [00:06:38] Well said. [00:06:39] And I truly think that there clearly is in the alt-right community and whatnot some distrust for President Trump. [00:06:49] And I truly believe that both you and Alex Jones are his two top assets that he really has. [00:06:57] I hope he leans into you. [00:06:59] You published an article the other day about Donald Trump and teaming up with Robert F. Kennedy Jr., and that got an insane amount of traction. [00:07:12] First of all, I think that's a brilliant idea, the two of them joining forces in some president, vice president, you know, President Trump, Vice President Kennedy type of scenario. [00:07:24] For everybody listening right now that didn't get a chance to read it, just Google Roger Stone, Robert Kennedy Jr., Donald Trump, and all these articles will come up. [00:07:36] It really went viral. But Roger, maybe you could tell the audience a little bit about what you wrote and the theory behind it. [00:07:43] You know, we're actually dipping out to a break. [00:07:45] So I'm starting on the after side of the break. [00:07:49] We'll get back to it. [00:07:51] Yeah, I think it's time for a bipartisan national unity ticket that would feature both a Republican and a Democrat. [00:07:58] And I can talk exactly about how we could achieve that on the other side. [00:08:03] Great to be back home here at InfoWars. [00:08:06] And I'll lay out why a Trump-Kennedy ticket is not so far-fetched, why it is actually possible, and why now is exactly the right time for this kind of outside-the-box thinking, Adam. [00:08:21] Great to be back here on Infowars. [00:08:25] It's great to have you. When we come back, we are going to hear more from Roger Stone about this bipartisan ticket of two of our favorite people. [00:08:33] You are listening to the American Journal. [00:08:34] I am your guest host, Adam King. [00:08:36] Stay tuned. All right. [00:08:48] Welcome back, InfoWarriors. [00:08:50] That was another epic break. [00:08:52] The commercials with InfoWars are just so much better than TV commercials. [00:08:57] We are joined on the other side of that commercial break by our guest again, Roger Stone. [00:09:01] We are talking about potential bipartisan ticket Trump and Kennedy Jr. [00:09:06] I think that's a great idea. [00:09:08] I think that there's a lot of Democrats who are Have so much buyer's remorse right now with Joseph R. Pedophile Biden. [00:09:18] And, you know, I think that having Trump aligned with a good Democrat like Kennedy could be a great thing for the country. [00:09:26] Something we really need. [00:09:28] Roger, you were talking about it, and I want to hear your thoughts on this further. [00:09:32] It's really your idea. Well, first of all, let me say that I don't think either man would consider it. [00:09:40] Today. But this nomination is not today. [00:09:43] It's next August. [00:09:46] The Democratic Party, I think, is petrified about the challenge from Robert Kennedy, despite the fact that he probably will be underfunded. [00:09:58] He doesn't seem to have anybody around him I don't know who has any expertise or experience in running a presidential campaign, but what he does have is the Kennedy magic. [00:10:10] And what he does have is the righteousness of his position. [00:10:15] And he's extraordinarily articulate, both as a critic of the effectiveness or safety of the COVID-19 vaccination, indeed, all vaccinations, As well as the correct, in my opinion, worldview about the failure of the neocons to project our military power to try to dominate the Earth, [00:10:36] which is coming back now to bite us, as we see Russia, China, Iran, the Saudis, the Turks, perhaps the Egyptians, the Brazilians, and others move into a new economic and presumably military world. [00:10:53] Alliance, very dangerous for America. [00:10:56] Bobby Kennedy is going to get abused in the democratic process the way... [00:11:04] They're going to try to keep him off the ballot in various states and caucuses. [00:11:08] They're going to kneecap him in every way possible. [00:11:12] I still think that he will, in the end, on those places where he gets on the ballot, he will overperform. [00:11:18] Donald Trump could solve the concerns of those who are upset about his record on warp speed through the selection of Kennedy. [00:11:29] Whether Trump could Jam Robert Kennedy, a registered Democrat, down the throats of a Republican national convention, remains to be seen. [00:11:40] I think, at that point, it is probable that he could do so. [00:11:44] Whether there are state laws Thank you. [00:12:02] That there aren't barriers to this idea. [00:12:05] But I like the idea of a bipartisan national unity ticket. [00:12:10] Lincoln did this after World War II, dumped Hannibal Hamlin as his vice president, selected Andrew Johnson, a Tennessee Democrat, in an effort to bind up the wounds of the country. [00:12:23] It was probably, unfortunately, a factor in his assassination. [00:12:27] We don't certainly wish that on the president. [00:12:30] In fact, I pray for the president's safety and the safety of his family every single day, both day and night. [00:12:38] But I really think that we're at a unique time in American history, a time when a Trump-Kennedy ticket just makes a lot of sense. [00:12:48] It would give those disaffected Democrats—and there are many, and there will be more—a place to go, a comfort level that they might not normally have, voting for a Republican. [00:13:01] And they also solve Trump's, quote-unquote, vaccination problem, in my opinion. [00:13:07] Again, I don't think either man would consider this today. [00:13:11] People look at it and say, oh, that's an interesting idea, but it's whimsy. [00:13:14] Well, I've thrown it out there, and it's taken off. [00:13:17] It's taken on a life of its own. [00:13:19] I think it's a great idea. [00:13:21] I admire both men very much. [00:13:24] As Trump would say, let's see what happens. [00:13:27] I also admire both men very much, and I think it's a really phenomenal idea. [00:13:32] I think that the backlash from the Republicans would come more from the rhinos rather than the alt-right community, which I think is bigger than the centrist Republicans. [00:13:43] I think in actuality is a smaller community, especially now with all the corruption and the chaos that's ensued. [00:13:51] A lot of people that were like center-right have moved more towards the far-right. [00:13:57] Which is ironic that a Democrat makes those people, especially the anti-vax community, feel more comfortable. [00:14:04] So it would be great for Trump. [00:14:06] It would also show that Trump is not playing partisan politics. [00:14:12] And, you know, it really goes against the uniparty system, that all these people are in bed together, you know, maybe even quite literally. [00:14:26] A bipartisan ticket could solve a lot of problems in our country, and I'm all for it. [00:14:33] I think it's a great idea, and I hope that it gets more traction. [00:14:37] Of course, it's not going to get picked up now because each guy's got to have his own ego for the fight ahead of him. [00:14:43] But there's things about Robert F. Kennedy Jr., like his stance on gun control, that I don't like. [00:14:51] But, you know, he really hit a home run with the vaccines, and I feel that there's nobody up there who's really representing the anti-vax community, which is quite significant at this point, you know? === No Incumbent Survives (00:53) === [00:15:02] And it's not just the anti-vax community, it's also the people who have lost all faith in Western medicine. [00:15:08] I think here's an important factor, and that is that historically, no president in modern times who faced a significant challenge to their re-election beat back that challenge went on to be re-elected. [00:15:24] Not Jimmy Carter in 1976, not Gerald Ford in 1976. [00:15:28] So anytime there's been a significant challenge to an incumbent, even though they turn that challenge back, they have not won. === Fundraising's Role in Debates (02:39) === [00:15:35] That means it significantly weakens the incumbent. [00:15:39] Should Joe Biden be the Democratic nominee? [00:15:42] And I think that's an open question, in all honesty. [00:15:46] I think that he would be significantly weakened by a grassroots insurgency, you know, led by Robert Kennedy, who's a very determined, serious person. [00:15:59] And he's very serious about this: whether or not he can put together an effective campaign, whether or not he can raise enough money—and the reason that's significant is because not Thank you. [00:16:17] They use your fundraising as the measure of your viability and whether you're allowed to be in the debates. [00:16:25] So we shall see. [00:16:26] Adams, I want to thank you for having me.

[00:17:35] And it could be exciting. [00:17:38] Wayne Allen Root is epic. [00:17:40] I'm going to try to tune in and check that out today. [00:17:42] That sounds like a great show.
