Trump Planning to Pardon Sheriff Joe Arpaio

Our Bigot-in-Chief:

President Trump told Fox News he is “seriously considering” issuing a pardon for former Arizona sheriff Joe Arpaio, who was convicted last month of criminal contempt for ignoring a judge’s order to stop detaining people because he merely suspected them of being undocumented immigrants.

Trump told the news outlet during a conversation in Bedminster, N.J., that the pardon could come quickly, perhaps in a matter of days. The news outlet reported the conversation on its website Monday.

“I might do it right away, maybe early this week. I am seriously thinking about it,” Trump said, according to Fox News. He said Arpaio was a “great American patriot” who had “done a lot in the fight against illegal immigration.”

A great American patriot for being found in criminal contempt for arresting people without probable cause? Seems like a pretty low standard for great American patriotism.

This is a desperate gesture from the dickweed in chief that nazis, klan and skinheads he pissed off this morning will never buy. They hate the government and that includes cops...even a right wing pus oozing anal fistula like Joe Arpaio. I don't think the majority of Trump's base, which is bigot central, will buy it either.
