Pardoned by Trump: Chris Collins Breaks Silence on Insider Trading, Prison & Political Comeback
Description
Former Congressman Chris Collins sits down for an explosive tell-all about being Trump's first congressional endorser, surviving federal prison during COVID, receiving a presidential pardon, and his 2025 political comeback in Florida's 19th district.
In this raw and unfiltered conversation, Collins reveals:
• Why he was the ONLY congressman standing by Trump after the Access Hollywood tapes
• The inside story of his insider trading case and how prosecutors used his son as leverage
• What it was like sitting to Trump's left in the Roosevelt Room and Oval Office
• His three weeks in solitary confinement during COVID (and how Trump's pardon likely saved his life)
• Behind-the-scenes stories from Trump's first term that have never been told
• His thoughts on congressional stock trading and the Pelosi portfolio phenomenon
• Why he's running again to rejoin Trump's inner circle
From mechanical engineer to serial entrepreneur, from county executive to four-term congressman, from federal prison to presidential pardon—this is one of the most remarkable American political stories you'll hear.
