Great to see Blago freed. While he's guilty as sin, the ridiculous sentence he was given didn't fit the crime.

I'm curious, what do you think would be an appropriate sentence for abusing the power of an elected position to sell a US Senate seat?  I wouldn't oppose a life sentence.

What do you think the chances are Rod Blogojevich has lots of dirt on Obama and his cronies and now will be inclined to share it.  Blogojevich met with Obama officials prior to his attempting to sell the seat.  I suspect that he has lots of information on the Democratic mob in Chicago.  Watch out to see if he "suddenly commits suicide" 

The clip is from Obama's minister the GD America cleric.

I’d say the chances are very very very low. If he had dirt, producing it in 2012, at the beginning of his incarceration, would have happened, vs 8 years after the fact, as you suggest, when he was likely near payroll anyway.... same same silly suicide comment. It’s kinda late for that don’t ya think?

The "drain the swamp" President is pardoning people convicted of corruption.

 

I'm waiting for Trump supporters to explain that.

Love that the one and only trump supporters explanations is "Trump the Magnanimous" Goes to prove not one defending him. TRUTH HURTS

Trump is a complete joke, but the people following him are a pretty sad-they have to lie to cover Trump's lies, and they believe them.  Donny is as corrupt as they come, and this is just another example.  There has been a practice of not investing presidents after their terms, but I have a strange feeling that won’t be the case this time.  He’ll be fighting the law until he’s cashed out ????

Trump plays 5 moves ahead of anyone else....you wouldn't be able to fathom

because rage has driven you to distraction....just like he wants.

Pardoning a democrat is a great move because he has now got the Dem party

to attack one of their own. Soon they will all turn on each other.

 

Trump is a next level strategist....I think even Machiavelli would be cautious around him.

 

Now be a sweetie and give me a few laugh emojis ????

If Trump was such a brilliant strategist, why is it that the Republicans took such a bad beating in the congressional midterms?

I gotta salute you for getting something exactly 180 degrees wrong. Democrats attacking the pardon of Blagojevich actually gave them the opportunity to show that they are nonpartisan. Ya think that there are lots of fans of the ex-governor out there? If there are, they are most likely Trump supporters. I suspect that Trump's nickname for Blagojevich is "mini-me".

He only pardoned Blogojevich because he was associated with the name Obama, no other reason, just continued pettiness from Trump

Quid pro Quo.

Obama treated Trump's candidacy and the man with utter contempt

and public ridicule. He should have known this wold happen when

his administration leftovers failed to remove Trump. Now Trump has

got every reason to throw them all out and start fresh. The next 4

years will be even better.

Obviously you see nothing wrong with Trump abusing the justice system to get even with people.

 

I'll give you one thing, Trump is much more even-handed; he publicly ridicules everyone, friend and foe.  He wants the whole world to know everyone is inferior to him.

So what you're saying is that Trump didn't act out of a sense of mercy or justice for Blagojevich, but rather out of spite and revenge. I agree with you entirely.

Liberal tears are so satisfying.

Perhaps you would like to start a petition on change.org to amend the rights of a sitting president....

to release/pardon prisoners at his pleasure or hire and fire at will.
