Disgraced former Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich is showing his support for President Trump ahead of tomorrow’s election. Blagojevich appeared at a pro-Trump rally yesterday in Chicago’s Mount Greenwood neighborhood on the South Side. The 63-year-old praised the President for remaking the Republican Party. Blagojevich was sentenced to 14 years in federal prison on corruption charges in 2011, but Trump commuted his sentence earlier this year and he was released.
