Ex-Detroit Mayor Kilpatrick Pleads For Trump's Help In Gushing Letter Praising His 'Unprecedented

Ex-Detroit Mayor Kilpatrick Pleads For Trump's Help In Gushing Letter Praising His 'Unprecedented Success'


Ex-Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick has fired off a letter to President Donald Trump, profusely praising his bold presidency while asking him for a commutation to set him free.

"I first want to congratulate you for the overwhelming and stunning victories of your Presidential campaign, and also the unprecedented success of your first two-years in office. You have shaken up the entire world...and that is a great thing to behold," Kilpatrick, a lifelong Democrat wrote in an April 16 letter obtained by Deadline Detroit. "I pray your success daily!"

The two-page cover letter includes a 20-page attachment in which Kilpatrick questions the feds' case against him, point by point, and accuses the judge and his trial attorney of having a conflict of interest.

"I applaud your boldness and tenacity in confronting the traditional and sometimes deformed politics of our country. You have vociferously exposed the treacherous and calculating schemes of our media and government that have worked to crush families, communities, and even Truth itself. Thank you for standing up, speaking out, and exposing this wickedness."

Trump won't ever read the attachment. The cover letter is all it will take for Trump to say he's been treated unfairly.
