Trump 'seriously considering' a pardon for ex-Sheriff Joe Arpaio

Can he make it anymore obvious, he is on the nazi's side.

President Trump may soon issue a pardon for Joe Arpaio, the colorful former Arizona sheriff who was found guilty two weeks ago of criminal contempt for defying a state judge’s order to stop traffic patrols targeting suspected undocumented immigrants. In his final years as Maricopa County sheriff, Arpaio had emerged as a leading opponent of illegal immigration.

“I am seriously considering a pardon for Sheriff Arpaio,” the president said Sunday, during a conversation with Fox News at his club in Bedminster, N.J. “He has done a lot in the fight against illegal immigration. He’s a great American patriot and I hate to see what has happened to him.”

His flaunting of the law was egregious. Typical rethug who believes the law doesn't apply to him, and when it does, he gets bailed out.

Arpaio is beyond disgusting.
