Blago Pardon is a Good Call

[Syriusly]

Blago was blatantly corrupt. He was tried and convicted.

There are no mitigating circumstances

Amazing that Trump cultists have no problem with this

Blago is a Blue State Illinois Democrat. I'm more amazed that you cultists have no problem with that.

Well, not really "amazed." I fibbed a little.

See here is the difference between you and I.

I think every politicians found guilty of crimes should do the time- regardless of what party he belongs to, or what state he comes from.

You don't.

 

[Flash]

Blagojevich is a criminal. Party doesn't enter into it.

The Democrat sonofabitch tried to sell Democrat Senate seat.

The only thing is that all he did was talk about it. He never received any money nor did he go through with it.

His sentence was too harsh for what he actually did.

However, if I was Trump I probably would not have bothered with a sentence reduction. There are bigger fish to fry.

Of course if I had been President I never would have let Crooked Hillary off the hook for her crimes either. I would have determined that being the Democrat Presidential nominee should not have put her above the law. Obama and Comey and all those other dickheads were assholes on giving her a pass, weren't they?

Blago was guilty as hell, but he was over sentenced, no doubt about it.

Still, Trump would not have touched it, were it not for the fact that the same people who tried to railroad him, did the same to Blago.

He was not over sentenced nor was he railroaded. The sentence was correct and as Republicans in Illinois pointed out, he was shown no remorse for what he did.

14 years for words? He never took any money. He should have gone to prison and eight years seems about right to me.

Crooked Hillary did a tremendous more amount more corruption including taking money for selling her influence as Secretary of State to foreigners and has never spent one day in jail. Not just the mega contributions to her money laundering foundation. Just ask the Russians about the uranium and then giving Slick Willy $600K for a stupid speech.

You mean that he never got the chance to take any money. Uranium One is a phony issue cooked up by far right conservatives. It has been thoroughly debunked. There is no evidence she sold any influence. As usual, more allegations with no proof.

You are confused Moon Bat.

It is not very phony when you look at the money that the Russian gave to Slick Willy and the money they poured into the fake money laundering foundation.

The filthy ass Clintons left the White House "broke and in debt" (their words) and a few years later they were mega millionaires. They did that on a Presidential pension, a Senator's and Secretary of State's salary.

The bitch sold her influence and the Russian, Saudis, Chinese and everybody else were buyers.

Stop being in denial about the corruption of the Clintons. It just make you look like a fool when you post that sorry shit to defend them.

No reality in your post, simply recycled junk from RWNJ websites and all debunked.

Stop spreading lies.

Hey- you folks have been telling us Hillary is guilty of something for over 30 years now. She must be a true criminal genius to manage to get away with everything the Right has accused her of.

So here is my take- I don't care whether it is Hillary Clinton or Donald Trump- if either of them has done what Blago did:
a) Offered to sell a Senate seat and
b) Tried to shake down a children's hospital by denying funding unless they ponied up a political contribution
But among the more shocking allegations against Blagojevich was that he wanted a $50,000 contribution from the CEO of the hospital, then known as Children’s Memorial, for backing millions of dollars in state funding for pediatric doctors to treat sick kids across the state of Illinois. The fundraising shakedown was among the criminal counts Blagojevich was found guilty on, reports and records in the case show.
I would want whoever did it- Hillary or Donald- to go to prison- and I would applaud it equally.

Because I am fine with corrupt politicians being convicted and sent to prison- and I don't care whether they have an R or a D behind their name.

What about you?

So why do you think your Dear Leader is covering all of that up?

He has been the top Law Enforcement officer for over 3 years now- if the Clinton's committed those crimes- why do you believe your Dear Leader is covering it all up?

It was an inside job by the Chicago, Democratic political machine.

Hillary wasn't prosecuted because she had Obama Justice Department running block for her. Also, her hubby and AG had their tarmac meeting in Phoenix.

 

[Bush92]

These Moon Bats will not admit that the Blago pardon was the right thing to do even though he was a Democrat because they are afflicted with Trump Derangement Syndrome.

You would think that since Blago was a Democrat from a Commie state they would be happy. However, their TDS mental illness prevents them from ever giving him credit for anything.

Blago shook down a children's hospital. He really didn't deserve a commutation.

Democrats and Republicans are in agreement that this commutation was wrong.

What campaign finance laws did he break?

 

[Snouter]

What will trigger the hell out of Deep State employees and douchebag democrat sheep is if President Trump hires Blago to a prison reform committee to work on measures to hold Crooked Hillary/Obama Deep State prosecutors and judges accountable to the US Constitution.

 

[Bush92]

Blagojevich's commutation is worse because he apparently is a pal of Trump as he appeared on Trump's Celebrity Apprentice.

What good is power if you can't use it to help your friends...right?

Yes. Just ask Lynch and the Clinton's.

We will never know if the bitch would have been convicted because the filthy Obama administration refused to take her case to a Grand Jury because "she had no intent".

When you are a corrupt Democrat Presidential nominee and there is a piece of shit Democrat President then you have nothing to worry about.

The crime did not fit the time. Blago was a corrupt Democrat politician who ATTEMPTED to capitalize on his position. I see no evidence that he actually profited, only that he attempted. If 14 years is a reasonable sentence for that, then there should be hundreds of Democrat AND Republican politicians doing life in prison for ACTUALLY profiting from their positions.

 

[Kondor3]

Blago tried to sell a US Senate seat.

That is a corrupt act.

Chicago Democratic Party Machine proceedings are irrelevant.

Two wrongs do not make a right, etc.

Precedent is also no excuse.

Blago violated his oath of office and the public trust of the People of the State of Illinois.

And, to make matters worse, he was arrogant-enough and stupid-enough to get caught.

He should have served his full sentence.

But, I can understand why the Orange Baboon did it.

He wants to be seen as 'merciful' to corrupt politicians who have been sent to prison.

After all... the day is coming when he, too, will need 'mercy' from someone in power.

Rod Blagojevich, freed by Trump pardon, leaves Colorado prison, returns to Illinois
The fact of the matter is US Senate Seats in Illinois have been up for sale by the corrupt Chicago Democratic Party political machine for decades. Mike Madigan, Illinois Speaker of the House and most corrupt politician in Illinois since Richard J. Daley, got pissed when Blago stepped in behind the scenes and tried to sell it without machine permission. Madigan had wisely got his daughter Lisa elected Attorney General so who's going to investigate his crimes? Also, who could they get to initiate an investigation and then tip the fed and cooperate with them to get the Governor? Whole thing was a corrupt Chicago Democratic pissing match.

This kind of corruption is part of why Bernie leads Trump in all polls.

Bernie is not from Chicago and we elect our President by state. I hope Bernie is the nominee. Trump will crush socialism and Marxism.

Bernie and his people are already trying to insert him into his sheep’s clothing so as to cover his socialism. He does not want to be known as a socialist. He is afraid because he knows that most of America does not want socialism to overtake capitalism.

Orange guy does something. Praise the Orange guy...

If Orange Guy said he deserves the Death Penalty you would be warming up the chair...

This is a set up for Trump to pardon his friends... Personally I hope pardons Rodger Stone, it means he has no 5th amendment protection and would have to sing like a canary or go back to jail.

 

[skookerasbil]

Media head explosions over these pardons,, "Trumps contempt for the law!"

Meanwhile, Trump has pardoned 26 people.

President Soetero?

Nearly 2,000

You know Bernie isn't a socialist... He is really a social democrat...

But s0n.....Trumps winning in the past 2 weeks = historic.

I cant even fathom what it must be like being a DUM supporter right now. Holy fuck.....have we ever seen the misery level this pronounced?
