Madoff.

quote:
Notorious Ponzi schemer Bernie Madoff is asking that President Donald Trump reduce his 150-year prison sentence — a a request that Madoff’s prosecutor promptly called “the very definition of chutzpah.”....

Madoff, who pleaded guilty to 11 crimes in 2009, is not asking for a pardon from the president.

Instead, he is requesting clemency from Trump in the form of a sentence commutation, or reduction, according to an application filed with the Justice Department.


His odds would be probably be better if Kim Kardashian gave a call....

He doesn't have chutzpah. He just has no other possibilities.

I thought he was dead.

The idea doesn’t seem to be all that far fetched.
