(CNN) — President Donald Trump on Tuesday retweeted a Fox News story saying he was "seriously considering" pardoning former Arizona sheriff Joe Arpaio, a controversial figure who was recently convicted of criminal contempt by a federal judge.

The President retweeted a post by "Fox & Friends" which referenced the network's report about the potential pardon on Sunday.

Arpaio, a hero in conservative circles, was accused of violating a court order in a racial profiling case by continuing patrols targeting immigrants. Arpaio has contended the order wasn't clear and he didn't intend to violate it.

"I am seriously considering a pardon for Sheriff Arpaio," Trump told Fox News, which said the interview occurred Sunday at Trump's Bedminster, New Jersey, golf club. "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."

He gave them a wink and a nod on Saturday only to have to come back yesterday and name some of them. Now he's retweeting Nazi conspiracy theories and considering this. I doubt they'll really turn on him. They twist themselves in knots not to but if they do he's DONE in the primaries.
