Ultimately, politics was a game Roger Stone loved more than almost anyone. "Politics with me isn't theatre. It's performance art. Sometimes, for its own sake," he said in 2007. A forthright self-promoter, Mr Stone crafted an image with a massive collection of expensive suits hand-tailored for his body-builder frame, joining them with French cuffs and perfectly knotted silk ties. His shoes always shine, as does his hair - for years dyed blonde until, more recently, ceding way to a perfect white mane. Well-known for his political antics and hard ball tactics, Mr Stone has revelled in being a Washington insider dating back to Richard Nixon's administration. With his self-professed political dirty tricks and the tattoo of Nixon on his back, he has long lurked in the shadows of Donald Trump's world and was instrumental in guiding him on his first steps to the White House. Stone was only officially on Donald Trump's presidential election campaign for a few month...
