Rod Blagojevich was Trumping in Illinois before Trump ever figured out how to Trump

I lived there until 2010. I voted for Blagojevich, twice.

I knew he was a crooked sonofabitch when I voted for him for the second time in 2006, but it was obvious that Obama was going to run and I figured he'd win, so I wanted a Democratic governor to appoint his successor to the Senate and your only choices for governor in 2006 were Crooked As Hell Rod Blagojevich and Crooked As Hell Judy Baar-Topinka. Of course I was going to vote for the crooked Democrat over the crooked REpublican!

Rod Blagojevich Trumped before Trump ever guessed how to Trump, let alone started Trumping.

Today is the first time since 2007 that a former Illinois governor is not in a federal prison!
