[Eric in the Ozarks]

I think Blago believes Barky will pardon him just as he leaves office. This will mean Blago serves a little over a year on a 14 year sentence (fairness, don't ya know.)
Blago kept his mouth shut about the Obammy connection so his bet is paid up.

Blago may believe that, but Zer0 is more likely to leave hem stuffed under the bus. It’s the way of the 0ne.
