https://archive.ph/lAyi5Donald Trump refused to dismiss the possibility of a pardon for Sean "Diddy Combs, even though the rap tycoon is currently on trial on sex trafficking and other serious charges.
The president said he was aware that he might be asked for clemency.
Nobodys asked, he told reporters. But I know people are thinking about it. I think some people have been very close to asking.
First of all, Id look at whats happening. And I havent been watching it too closely.
I havent spoken to him in years.
He used to really like me a lot, but I think when I ran for politics, he sort of- that relationship busted up, from what I read, I dont know. He didnt tell me that, but Id read some little bit nasty statements in the paper all of a sudden, said Trump.
