Trump stated on Wednesday that he is likely to commute the sentence of former Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich, who is serving time in federal prison on corruption charges.
Blagojevich, a Democrat, was convicted in 2011 on charges of corruption charges related to an attempt to “sell” the U.S. Senate seat of former President Barack Obama. He was sentenced to 14 years in federal prison which he has been serving since 2012.
