Fox News’ Ainsley Earhardt said on Hannity Wednesday night that President Donald Trump will consider pardoning Paul Manafort.

Sean Hannity — interviewing Earhardt after her interview with the president that is set to air tomorrow morning on Fox & Friends — asked if Trump was more angry at his former personal lawyer Michael Cohen than Paul Manafort.

Earhardt replied: “He mentioned pardoning Manafort.”

“He did mention pardoning Manafort?” Hannity asked.

“He did,” she replied. “He said he considered that. He feels I think — I think he feels bad for Manafort. They were friends, he didn’t work for him for very long. Worked for him for basically 100 days. The president didn’t know about all of this tax stuff. He wouldn’t know about that.”

Earhardt’s full interview with the president will air on Fox & Friends Thursday morning.

I will be interviewed on @foxandfriends by @ainsleyearhardt tomorrow from 6:00 A.M. to 9:00 A.M. Enjoy! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) August 23, 2018

Oh Trump. There are so many charges still outstanding against Manafort, 10 from the mistrial alone. And the AG of New York is ready to step in at any time with even more charges. Maybe save those pardons for your son?

Earhardt "He didn't work for him for very long he basically worked for around a l00 days". Manafort worked for Trump for 145 days and was advising him after he was fired
