President Donald Trump said Wednesday he would look at pardoning the men convicted in a scheme to kidnap Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, and swiped at the legitimacy of the case, which was brought during his first term.

“I will take a look at it. It’s been brought to my attention,” Trump said while speaking to reporters in the Oval Office during the swearing-in of Jeanine Pirro, the new U.S. Attorney for Washington, D.C.

He said that he had watched the trial and that “it looked to me like somewhat of a railroad job.”

“You know, they were drinking, and I think they said stupid things, but I’ll take a look at that,” Trump added.
