50 Cent has spoken out against the idea of former President Donald Trump pardoning Sean “Diddy” Combs, saying he plans to personally reach out to Trump about it.
This comes after Trump said in a press conference that he would “certainly look at the facts” if asked to consider a pardon for Diddy, who is currently on trial for sex trafficking, racketeering, and related charges.
“Nobody’s asked,” Trump said. “But I know people are thinking about it. I would certainly look at the facts.”
He also said he hadn’t spoken to Diddy in years and noted that their relationship cooled after he entered politics.
50 Cent Responds
50 Cent reacted quickly on Instagram, posting a video of Trump’s remarks and making his stance clear.
“He said some really bad things about Trump, it’s not ok. I’m gonna reach out so he knows how I feel about this guy,” he wrote, tagging his own brands, @bransoncognac and @lecheminduroi.
50 Cent has been vocal throughout Diddy’s trial, often commenting on the case and sharing updates with his followers. His latest post suggests he wants to make sure Trump knows how serious he is about opposing a potential pardon.
The Bigger Picture
Diddy’s trial is still underway. Witnesses include Cassie, Dawn Richard, Kid Cudi, and former assistants, as prosecutors present multiple accusations. Trump has not confirmed any formal request from Diddy’s team, but speculation has grown about the possibility of a pardon.
So far, there is no official action or decision regarding a potential pardon.
