Roger Stone: Russian wanted Trump to pay $2M for dirt on Clinton during the campaign
By Jacqueline Thomsen - 06/17/18 09:08 AM EDT

Former Trump campaign adviser Roger Stone said that he met with a Russian man during the 2016 campaign who wanted President Trump to pay $2 million for damaging information on Hillary Clinton.

The Washington Post reported Sunday that Stone met with the man in May 2016, in a meeting set up by Trump campaign aide Michael Caputo. The meeting was previously unreported.

Stone told the Post that the man had requested Trump pay $2 million for dirt on Clinton, but that Stone rejected the offer.

“You don’t understand Donald Trump,” Stone said he told the man. “He doesn’t pay for anything.”

Giuliani: 'I doubt' Trump knew Roger Stone met with Russian during 2016 campaign

Rudy Giuliani said Sunday he doubts President Trump knew that his longtime adviser, Roger Stone, met during the 2016 campaign with a Russian man who offered dirt on Hillary Clinton.

“I doubt it. I certainly didn’t know about it. It’s news to me,” the president’s lawyer said on CNN’s “State of the Union.”

“It seems to me, however, whatever the differing recollections about this, it sort of gets resolved that Stone did nothing about it,” he continued. “He came to the conclusion, according to The (Washington) Post that it was a waste of time.”

“I can’t imagine anything got back to the then presidential candidate that was of any substance,” he added.

I thought Trump stated his campaign had no contact with the Russians?

Strange how he never mentioned this in his congressional testimony last September.
