'No moral compass': George Conway reveals what Roger Stone's comments say about Trump
The new revelations about Roger Stone prove how amoral former President Donald Trump is, argued conservative attorney George Conway on MSNBC's "The ReidOut" Friday evening.
This comes amid newly revealed footage of Stone, a longtime ally of Trump who was allegedly given security by the Proud Boys during the events of January 6, calling for the assassination of two Democratic lawmakers — something he previously denied having done.
"Let's talk about Roger Stone for a moment," said anchor Joy Reid. "Roger Stone is the guy who in the summer of 2020 looked at the polls, saw that his guy was losing, that Donald Trump was losing, and said, you know what we're going to do, we're just going to declare victory and say we won anyway. This is the guy in on the idea beforehand that they were going to lie because they were going to lose. Here you have him talking with a cop, a former cop, about killing two Democratic representatives. Will there be any fallout from that?"

"Well, I don't know," said Conway. "I don't know what you can do to Roger Stone. If he's just talking about it, I don't know that it suffices for a conspiracy. You need an agreement to put somebody in jail."
However, he continued, "it just goes to show, if this is real, I mean, the fact we can even think it's real tells you a lot about the people who surround Donald Trump. Donald Trump himself is a man without any moral compass. He's a man without conscience, a man without remorse, a man without empathy. And the only thing he cares about is himself. And he surrounded himself with people, an increasing number of people who also lack moral compasses."
"And that's the point that you're very much absolutely right making," Conway added. "And this is the reason why it's going to be much, much worse, and so dangerous to the republic. This is a man who has already talked about suspending the Constitution. A man who tried to stop the peaceful transition of power. A man who would stop at nothing to wreak revenge on his perceived enemies. The only criteria is, can I get away with it?"
