Donald Trump recently confirmed that Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs asked to be pardoned following his sentencing. Now, his longtime rival, 50 Cent, has mocked him over the request.
Combs was sentenced to four years and two months in prison on October 3rd for two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution.
Speaking to reporters earlier this week, Trump said, “A lot of people have asked me for pardons. I call him Puff Daddy; he has asked me for a pardon.”
50 took to Instagram to react to Combs’ move, claiming he doesn’t deserve a presidential pardon. “Man you can’t get No pardon running ya mouth like that!” he wrote. “LOL Get Out of here.”
The G-Unit rapper has addressed Combs receiving a possible pardon in the past, explaining how he would go out of his way to make sure it doesn’t happen.
“He said some really bad things about Trump. It’s not ok,” he said. “I’m gonna reach out so he knows how I feel about this guy. Donald doesn’t take well to disrespect, and doesn’t forget who chooses to go against him. While working tirelessly to make America great again there is no room for distraction.”
On another occasion, he posted a video of Combs saying, “If Trump gets elected, I really do believe in my heart there will be a race war. That’s why this message is not just to Black people. This message is to everybody. This man is really trying to turn us against each other and put us in a situation. America really messed up.”
50 also posted a clip of him telling Charlamagne Tha God, “White men like Trump need to be banished.”
