Stone is entertaining. Him on Rand Paul: http://www.nytimes.com/2015/08/27/f...nald-trumps-well-tailored-coattails.html?_r=0

He feels much the same about Senator Rand Paul of Kentucky, with whom Mr. Trump has tangled. “Rand Paul could walk down the street in Manhattan and nobody would know who he was,” Mr. Stone said. “He looks like a guy who went to the gym, jumped in the shower really quick and then ran to the meeting. He looks unkempt. Cowboy boots from Kentucky. O.K., whatever. But you can’t dress like a college student. Someone should get the guy a decent haircut and a good suit.”

Tactics:

At age 19, as The Washington Post reported in 1986 and The New Yorker mentioned in a 2008 profile of Mr. Stone, he donated money in the name of a socialist organization to the presidential campaign of Paul N. McCloskey Jr., a Republican, who was called Pete. He then sent a letter and a receipt from the McCloskey campaign to The New Hampshire Union-Leader in an effort to discredit the candidate and to help his political idol, Richard M. Nixon, who was then running for re-election.

“Never miss the opportunity to have sex or be on television, as Gore Vidal said,” Mr. Stone said, sitting in a black leather Corbusier chair in the one-bedroom apartment on the Upper East Side where he stays when he is in New York.

He split with Mr. Trump in the wake of the Aug. 6 Republican presidential debate, soon after he said he strongly advised Mr. Trump to stop attacking the popular Fox anchor Megyn Kelly, who was a moderator at the Cleveland event.

Mr. Trump said he fired Mr. Stone. Mr. Stone said he quit.

The breakup made for good copy in the political press — here were two gunslingers, facing each other in the news-media glare — and it turned Mr. Stone into something of a hot property rather than just another ho-hum talking head.

Aside from giving him a forum to rail against Mr. Trump’s many political foes, the talk-show rounds have allowed Mr. Stone to display his highly developed sense of style.

“It’s given me a chance to show off an extraordinary wardrobe,” said Mr. Stone, who turned 64 on Thursday. “I’ve worn seersucker twice on CNN!”
