Everyday President Trump makes news that embarrasses the office of the Presidency and our country.
The latest embarrassment is his decision to pardon Todd & Julie Chrisley who were convicted of a scheme to defraud banks out of millions. They were found guilty, Todd received a prison term of 12 years and Julie received 7 years.
There is hope for Sean “Diddy” Combs if he is convicted. Rumor has it that he has taken down all of his album covers that lined his jail cell walls and is replacing them with Trump posters.
