In 2011, Blagojevich was sentenced to 14 years in prison on 18 felony counts, over charges that included attempts to sell former President Barack Obama’s Senate seat in 2008 and to shake down the CEO of a children’s hospital.

When we rebuild the Republic, after this is all over, that power needs to be removed from the president as it's just a way to authorize Mayhem in his name.

Well naturally, Trump would see nothing wrong with someone attempting to sell a US Senate seat. It's exactly what he would have done had the people of New York or Florida ever been stupid enough to elect him governor.
The Trump admin and the American conservative legal community, along with Roberts' SCOTUS, have been arguing that political corruption is not illegal for years now.
I just, I just, at this point I'm not even outraged by the pardon. How does this NOT ring alarm bells for the other side? This is like the third or fourth *corrupt* Democrat, Trump is pulling into his team. He's picking them because they're corrupt. How does anyone trust him? It's bizzarro world.
This is all about his anger at Obama having a better historical record and being one of the most respected presidents in history! Ron B was a corrupt asshole who got what he deserves! Right in line with the J6 felons in his disrespect of our country.
