Roger Stone Jr. — the author of the upcoming book Bushwacked and a political commentator in his own right, distinct from his father, longtime political operative Roger Stone — joined Sean Kelly on the Digital Social Hour for a conversation recorded at AmFest.
The discussion moves through his views on party unity, loyalty, and where he believes the country is headed over the next two years, with Roger Stone Jr. offering his own read on the political moment rather than a consensus take.
