One time I agree with Trump.

Blogo never did anything, he just talked, hypothesized about it.

That’s NOT A CRIME. He should have never even left office, let alone railroaded by the Illinois corruption machine. And, he was a good governor.

President Trump commuted the sentence of Rod Blagojevich, the former governor convicted of trying to essentially sell Barack Obama’s Senate seat.
Tuesday, February 18, 2020 1:43 PM EST

By commuting the sentence, the president would free Mr. Blagojevich from prison without wiping out the conviction. Republicans have advised the president against it, arguing that Mr. Blagojevich’s crime epitomizes the corruption that Mr. Trump had said he wanted to tackle as president.

The president’s decision came the same day that he pardoned Edward J. DeBartolo Jr., a former owner of the San Francisco 49ers who pleaded guilty in 1998 to concealing an extortion attempt and eventually surrendered control of his team.
