When wearing a trench coat, you’re allowed to act like Humphrey Bogart when he was detective Sam Spade. – Roger Stone
The ascot connotes informality. It is something one might wear at a cocktail party in one’s own flat but is not something you wear out in public. – Roger Stone
I’m a total Republican, but I’ve never claimed to be a Christian-right conservative. They’re a large but dwindling part of the Party. – Roger Stone
Above all, avoid the Indiana Jones fedora. It’s very yesterday, and if you wear a black one, you might be mistaken for an Orthodox Jew. – Roger Stone
The straps that suspend a man’s trousers from his shoulders – known in the U.S. as ‘suspenders’ and in Britain as ‘braces’ – are always correct with a summer suit made of seersucker, linen, or silk. – Roger Stone
I remember going through the cafeteria line and telling every kid that Nixon was in favor of school on Saturdays. It was my first political trick. – Roger Stone
The proper navy blue blazer can be single or double-breasted and looks best in a three-button style. The proper blazer requires side-vents. Italian versions can have no vent at all, but I find this a bit fast. – Roger Stone
An ascot is never a substitute for a well-tied four-in-hand tie or a slightly disheveled bow tie. – Roger Stone
In most matters regarding apparel, I am a big fan of natural fibers – wool, cotton, and so on. Not when it comes to socks. An elastic fiber of some type is necessary. – Roger Stone
There is nothing – nothing – worse than seeing ankle or a hairy calf when a man in a suit or trousers sits down. – Roger Stone
Burberry makes the best version of the traditional trench coat, which can have a zipper and button-in lining for colder climes. The belt, which comes standard, should never be buckled but must be casually knotted at the waist. – Roger Stone
John McCain has taken tens of millions of dollars from special interests and lobbyists in his senate and presidential campaigns. Now, we have to wonder if he will be able to remain objective on national security matters, as millions pour into his ‘charity’ from oppressive foreign governments. – Roger Stone
Nothing ruins the lines of a suit or blazer and makes you look more like a doofus than when your pockets are crammed with stuff – a wallet, a cell phone, keys, a calculator, a calendar, pens, etc. – Roger Stone
‘The New York Times’ breathlessly writes about the left-of-center Americans Elect being a ‘new third party,’ but we already have a third party: the Libertarian Party. – Roger Stone
The reason I’m a Nixonite is because of his indestructibility and resilience. He never quit. – Roger Stone
What sets seersucker apart from other materials? It’s the ‘coolest’ material to wear in hot and humid weather. ‘Coolest,’ as in temperature, and ‘coolest’ as in hip, baby! There is nothing like it. – Roger Stone
Obviously a candidate has to be held responsible for the words that come out of his mouth, regardless of where they came from. – Roger Stone
Of course a lot of the journalists hated Nixon, but they were always blown away by how smart he was. – Roger Stone
The Establishment on both the Left and the Right, who want to disenfranchise the millions of Republican voters who support Donald Trump, have blamed the staged riots near Trump rallies on Trump or on Bernie Sanders. That’s like blaming the Russians for the Reichstag Fire. – Roger Stone
Every well-dressed gentleman must have an all-cotton oxford cloth button-down shirt from Brooks Brothers. – Roger Stone
Cruz named Former Texas Senator Phil Gramm as his economic guru. This guy virtually crashed the U.S. economy. Gramm is largely responsible for two bills which led to the speculative bubble which popped in September 2008. – Roger Stone
