50 Cent shares videos of ‘bad things’ Diddy said about Trump days after POTUS hinted at possible pardon

MANHATTAN, NEW YORK: Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson made good on his word this week, digging into his archive and resurfacing past inflammatory comments made by Sean “Diddy” Combs about President Donald Trump.

This came amid speculations over whether Trump might issue a pardon for the embattled music mogul, as reported by Billboard.

50 Cent shares videos of Sean 'Diddy' Combs criticizing Donald Trump

On Monday, June 2, 50 Cent posted two explosive clips to social media, showcasing Sean "Diddy" Combs sharply criticizing Donald Trump in past interviews. The posts, laced with 50 Cent's trademark trolling tone, seemed designed to remind the president of just how vocal Diddy has been in the past.

“See Trump don’t like s**t like this buddy, you run your mouth to much,” 50 captioned one of the clips.

In the first video, Diddy can be seen in conversation with Charlamagne Tha God, warning of a societal collapse if Trump were to win office. “If Trump gets elected, I really do believe in my heart there’ll be a race war,” the Bad Boy Records founder said.

Another video shows Diddy on REVOLT TV declaring, “White men like Trump need to be banished.”

50 Cent has spoken out about the idea of Trump granting Diddy a presidential pardon, sharing several posts, including one featuring a clip from Trump’s interview. In the since-deleted post, he 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.”

Diddy is currently in the middle of a high-profile federal trial in New York. During the 15th day of testimony on Tuesday, a hotel worker reportedly testified that the rapper paid them $100,000 to suppress video evidence allegedly showing him assaulting ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura, according to ABC News. 

Donald Trump floats possibility of issuing a pardon to Sean 'Diddy' Combs

The president, who previously called Sean "Diddy" Combs a “good friend,” acknowledged to reporters that the idea was on some people’s minds, even if no formal request had been made yet.

“Well, nobody's asked, but I know people are thinking about it," he said, according to Entertainment Weekly. “I know some people are close to asking. First of all, I'd look at what's happening.”

When asked about the possibility of issuing a pardon for Diddy during a recent Oval Office press briefing, Trump didn’t rule it out.

“I haven’t spoken to him in years,” the president said. “He used to really like me a lot. I think when I ran for politics, that relationship busted up from what I read. I don’t know — he didn’t tell me that, but I’d read some little bit nasty statements.” 

He added that his decision wouldn’t be based on personal bias, “I’d certainly look at the facts. If I think someone was mistreated, it wouldn’t matter whether they like me or not.” 

Internet divided as 50 Cent shares videos of Sean 'Diddy' Combs criticizing Donald Trump

Social media users were quick to comment on the matter, with one writing, “We will have BREAKING NEWS….from the White House to address by noon tomorrow…I am sure you just took that man’s last hope for sure,” while another ironically said, “Trump gonna just charge him double what he selling pardons for now.”

“I swear 50 been hating the right way and look how joyful he looks,” another commented. One user weighed in, “50 out here doing the lords work.” 

However, some weren't thrilled about his approach, with one writing, “50 cent your obsession is seriously insane! Get a life.” Another said, “I believe 50 cent is a police officer or he hates his own kind very badly.”

"50 Cents you aren't worth a penny!!! The hate in your heart for this brother is sickening!!!" another comment read.
