“That” would also make Trump a felon.

Yeah, Blago has something Trump wants. The President isn’t going to pardon Blago because Blago is such a lovable little guy.

Why would President Trump's pardon of Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich be significant?

Because on goal of the Muller fishing expedition was to try to uncover any misconduct or crimes committed by the Trump campaign and transition team.

These type of crimes are not just common, they are almost universal in presidential transitions as people within the transition jockey and horse trade for position and power and try to capitalize and profit from their new found positions of power and influence.

As we can tell from the Mueller team's increasing frustration, President Trump ran what may be the most (and possibly only) honest, ethical and above board presidential campaign and transition in electoral history .

Given their past experience with Hillary Clinton and Barak Obama’s blatant influence peddling and self dealing , the Clinton and Obama operatives working for Mueller must be stunned and amazed that they can literally no dirt on Team Trump except for attempts at fake, manufactured frame up jobs by the FBI and CIA

How does this tie into Rod Blagojevich?

Lets take a trip down memory lane (or perhaps memory hole lane would more appropriate) back to the Fall of 2008 just after Obama won the 2008 election

When Barak Obama won, his Senate seat was vacant and he blatantly trying to broker the sale of his vacated senate seat to Jesse Jackson Junior for two million dollars with then Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich, who had the power of appointing Obama’s successor .

Turns out, then U.S. Attorney Patrick Fitzgerald ( a charter member of the Mueller /Comey FBI/DOJ Stasi crew) was wire tapping Blagojevich's phone conversations in hopes of finding a pretext for prosecuting him for the heinous crime of being elected Illinois Governor while being a Republican.

In an ironic twist of fate, Fitzgerald flat out caught Obama, on tape, engaging in a criminal conspiracy to conspire with Rod Blagojevich to sell his old Senate seat for 2 million to Jesse jr. Part of the deal was Obama using his position as President to provide Federal goodies for Blagojevich

Fitzgerald immediately shut the Blagojevich investigation and it's wire tap down and then Fitzgerald went public to tip the Obama people off and shut down the pay for play scheme. Shortly afterwards, Fitz arrested Governor Rod Blagojevich for corruption and pay for play.

Stunningly, Fitzgerald publicly admitted at the time he shut the investigation down because there was a felony involving President Elect Barak Obama in progress and if he did not put a stop to it, he would have had to indict Barak Obama on felony charges which would have prevented President Elect Obama from assuming office.

This is an example of a real, documented Presidential transition crime ( and probably one of the least significant committed during the Obama transition) committed by Barak Obama that was covered up by the FBI and DOJ and completely suppressed by the media .

Both Governor Rod Blagojevich and Jeese Jackson Jr went to prison for their parts in the scheme but Obama was protected and able to skate free with intervention of then FBI Director Robert Mueller. This is the same FBI Director Robert S. Mueller, III who is the Special Counsel investigating Donald Trump and Russian collusion

The wire tap tapes of Obama horse trading with Governor Blagojevich should still exist and would now be under the control of none other than President Donald Trump.

Just sayin’

Unfortunate that Blago and his family cannot recapture the lost years.
===========================

Are you f'en serious? Blago is a total POS. As for Blago's family, they're also total POS. He married the daughter of former Chicago alderman, Richard Mell, who was also a total POS.

You should do some research before you shoot off your mouth about the "poor Blagojevich" family.

I didn’t say that, but your idea would be impeachment worthy as you presented it.
