Roger Stone’s attack against Casey DeSantis, the wife of Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, has sparked a huge backlash on social media, with some users saying the longtime Donald Trump ally has crossed the line.

Stone is the political strategist who was convicted in 2020 on charges including lying to Congress and obstructing justice and witness tampering. He was later pardoned by Trump in his last weeks in the White House. Stone called Casey DeSantis a “c***” on Wednesday night for mentioning her children during her husband’s campaign trail.

Casey DeSantis has not only supported Ron DeSantis’ bid for the White House, but also played a role as strategic adviser to her husband, taking part in several campaign events.
The comment was made by Stone, who is supporting Trump’s bid for a second presidential term in 2024, on X, formerly known as Twitter, in response to a post by failed Republican congressional candidate Mike Crispi.

[For it to make Newsweek and get picked up by MSN? Might just have enough legs to get Stone booted or at least muzzled. He’s a pig and has squandered whatever sympathy that raid on his house engendered. ~ Beege]
