Trump pardoned Blagojevich 

 

1) So that when he pardons all his crooked buddies he can say, "Hey I do it for Dems, too!"

2) To desensitize the country to corruption and show that its not a big deal.

3) Because he will be a thorn in the side of Dems

 

In that order of priority. It is a calculated attempt to continue to advance his agenda. 

 

Well said. He does nothing that is not born of self-interest.

Wonderful pizza though! 

There's a great Chicago pizza place here in Tulsa - started by natives from Chicago. 

If you ever get this way ... I'll take you there.

 #2 is the worse reason we have trump in the WH - he has corrupted the GOP and now he is doing it to the country at large.
