President Trump has pardoned former Maricopa County, Ariz., sheriff Joe Arpaio, the White House announced Friday night.
White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders had said earlier this week that Trump would make an announcement on Arpaio at an “appropriate time.”
Trump had hinted at a rally in Phoenix on Tuesday that he was preparing to pardon the controversial former sheriff who was convicted of criminal contempt.
Arpaio was convicted July 31 of criminal contempt by a federal judge for disobeying a federal order on detaining individuals suspected of being in the U.S. illegally.
President Trump on Sheriff Joe Arpaio: “I’ll make a prediction, I think he’s going to be just fine,” reported Fox News.
Imagine that, a President who does exactly what he says he will.
Another wrong righted by our President. Only in America does a Sheriff get convicted of doing his job. Finally, Justice is done. President Trump formally banns Trannies from the military and pardons Sheriff Joe all on the same day. What's he trying to do, make all the liberal's heads explode? MSM will have a Trump bashing weekend for sure. Now give the good Sheriff a job at DHS! That would be classic. Would make all the libbies go insane. It would be a shit storm hitting libtards at once. Now that Sheriff Joe's cell is unoccupied, how about we use it for Hillary.
Another day of winning. Anything Trump does that gets libtard panties in a wad is a victory.
