Trump is widely expected to pardon or commute Stone's sentence, according to at least half a dozen sources close to the President.
Asked by Fox News host Sean Hannity whether he's considered a pardon or commutation for Stone, Trump said during a phone interview, "I am always thinking."
"You'll be watching like everyone else in this case," he said.
