Did Trump ever meet Zhao? Did he type his personal opinion about Zhao's conviction, or was he merely “informed about it”? Trump doesn't appear to know:
This man was handled actually badly by the Biden administration. And he was given a jail time period. He's extremely revered. He's a really profitable man. They despatched him to jail and so they actually set him up. That's my opinion. I used to be informed about it.
I mentioned, “Eh, it might look unhealthy if I do it. I've to do the correct factor.” I don't know the person in any respect. I don't assume I ever met him. Possibly I did. Or, , any individual shook my hand or one thing. However I don't assume I ever met him. I don't know who he's. I used to be informed that he was a sufferer, similar to I used to be and similar to many different individuals, of a vicious, horrible group of individuals within the Biden administration.

Stating that Trump's pardon of Zhao got here after Binance helped facilitate a $2 billion buy of World Liberty's stablecoin, O'Donnell requested Trump to deal with the looks of a pay-to-play deal.
“Properly, right here's the factor, I do know nothing about it as a result of I'm too busy doing the opposite… I can solely inform you this. My sons are into it. I'm glad they're, as a result of it's most likely an awesome business, crypto. I believe it's good… I do know nothing in regards to the man, aside from I hear he was a sufferer of weaponization by authorities. Whenever you say the federal government, you're speaking in regards to the Biden authorities. It's a corrupt authorities. Biden was probably the most corrupt president and he was the worst president we've ever had.”
