Rod Blagojevich (Fox News/screen grab)
Former Democratic Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich on Wednesday said that President Donald Trump's pardon of him was an "act of kindness."
At a press conference following his release from prison, Blagojevich repeatedly praised the president.
"I'm a Trumpocrat," the former governor said. "If I have the ability to vote, I'm going to vote for him. I don't know if they'll allow me to vote."
"He's the one that's fighting to bring real change," he added. "That's why he gets so much pushback. He's also a man with a kind heart. He's sees wrong and he tries to right it."
