The hip-hop world is buzzing after former President Donald Trump’s unexpected comments about Sean “Diddy” Combs’ ongoing legal troubles. During a recent White House press conference, Trump was pressed about whether he’d consider pardoning the music mogul if convicted in his high-profile sex trafficking case. “Nobody’s asked,” Trump responded, “but I know people are thinking about it.”
Trump’s non-committal answer immediately caught the attention of 50 Cent, who has had a longstanding feud with Diddy. Taking to Instagram, the “In Da Club” rapper issued a fiery response: “He said some really bad things about Trump… I’m gonna reach out so he knows how I feel about this guy.” 50 Cent emphasized Trump’s reputation for not forgetting those who oppose him, suggesting Diddy’s past criticism of the former president might come back to haunt him.
The exchange highlights the complicated history between Trump and Combs. While Trump acknowledged they were once “good friends,” he noted their relationship cooled when he entered politics. The trial continues to unfold with disturbing testimony from multiple accusers, including Diddy’s ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura, who has detailed allegations of abuse during their relationship.
