50 Cent Slams Rumored Trump Pardon for Diddy: “Not OK”.
50 Cent has made it crystal clear. If Diddy ends up convicted of sex trafficking, he wants no pardon, not even from Donald Trump.
Trump recently said he might “consider” a pardon for Diddy, depending on how the facts look. That comment stirred things up fast. Especially for 50, who’s not just a longtime critic of Diddy but has backed Trump before in certain moments.
Reacting to the news, 50 wrote, “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 followed up by clarifying, “I didn’t say I would nuke anything. I simply said I will make sure Trump is aware.”
For a while now, rumors have been floating around that Diddy might end up getting a presidential pardon if things went south in court. That’s not just a random internet theory. Even Suge Knight — currently behind bars — believes it could happen.
Speaking with NewsNation, Suge gave his take on the situation. “I think he’s got some favors with the government. I think they’re gonna show him a little leeway. It might not seem like it when it’s all said and done, but I don’t think he has nothing to worry about, and I don’t think he’s worried because he’s gonna be federal, and if he gets convicted, Trump’s gonna pardon him.”
Suge didn’t stop there. He added, “I still feel that Puffy is going to be alright and have a fair shot at it. He’s not a dummy. And I’m quite sure somebody going to talk to those jurors and convince one or two of them — that’s all you need, is one.”
Despite their rocky history, Suge made it known that he doesn’t believe Diddy belongs in prison.
“I say this all the time,” Suge said, “Puffy and I are not friends, but Puffy should definitely walk free.”
He also pointed to a bigger issue in the music industry: “The most important thing is that it was other executives that was involved in Puff’s life. And for Puffy to be the only guy that gets on the stand is a sad day for Hip Hop.”
