President Trump says he could soon commute the sentence of Rod Blagojevich, who, he noted, was on his TV show; adds his view that Blagojevich was sentenced to 14 years in prison “over a phone call where nothing happens.”
"Do you realize I have twice been given a longer prison sentence than Al Capone?" he said, adding:"All I'm asking for is apply the law. And if you apply the right law, I didn't cross the line."
Trump raised the prospect of a commutation last year when he announced a pardon for conservative commentator Dinesh D'Souza, who had pleaded guilty to campaign finance violations in connection with illegal contributions to a Republican Senate candidate in 2012.
