President Donald Trump announced on Friday that he is commuting the prison sentence of former Congressman George Santos.
In a social media post, Trump explained that he recently thought about Democrat Senator Richard Blumenthal, who falsely claimed to be a Vietnam veteran.
George has been in solitary confinement for long stretches of time and, by all accounts, has been horribly mistreated
Trump compared Santos' situation to Blumenthal's, stating that Santos "had the Courage, Conviction, and Intelligence to ALWAYS VOTE REPUBLICAN!".
