Trump pardons former Sheriff Joe Arpaio

Washington (CNN)President Donald Trump has pardoned controversial sheriff Joe Arpaio of his conviction for criminal contempt, the White House said Friday night.


CNN reported Wednesday that the White House had prepared the papers for Trump's final decision.
Arpaio, who was a sheriff in Maricopa County, Arizona, was found guilty of criminal contempt last month for disregarding a court order in a racial profiling case. His sentencing was scheduled for October 5.

"Not only did (Arpaio) abdicate responsibility, he announced to the world and to his subordinates that he was going to continue business as usual no matter who said otherwise," wrote US District Judge Susan Bolton in the July 31 order.
Trump indicated he would pardon Arpaio at a rally in Phoenix, Arizona, on Tuesday: "I won't do it tonight because I don't want to cause any controversy."
"I'll make a prediction," Trump said, adding, "I think he's going to be just fine."

Booya!


Suck on that Obama!
Suck on that Holder!


But on the other hand, seriously, had Hillary won instead of Trump, Arpaio would be looking at 25 to life.


Thank God for Trump.

I'm not allowed to give Trump an accolade or thumbs up according to his posse of rabid followers. 

But I like the pardon.

   Arpaio was on the Trump Train early, being the Immigration Hawk that he is, and richly deserves this.
   Again, President Trump,  Thank You.

Good!

    @bigheadfred we finally discovered something that @INVAR is not so opinionated on, I'm shocked to be honest with ya.....

I like to always point out that the rabid devotees of Trump demand total obeisance and still cannot help themselves when it comes to insisting they do not want our support unless it is total.

Giving a thumbs up when he serves Conservative and right principles is something they do not want from us - because depicting us as obstructionists serves their quest for vengeance much better.

But good on him for doing the right thing after a witch hunt and burning by a corrupt court system doing the bidding of the SJWs of the Soros payroll.

Hahaha - screw you libs. Stuff it down their throats and wash it down with a baseball bat.

   The more reason to do it, it pisses them off.
