The disgraced music mogul was indicted in September on federal charges, including sex trafficking, and is currently on trial in New York.
President Donald Trump responded Friday to a question about potentially pardoning Sean “Diddy” Combs, who stands indicted on federal charges including sex trafficking.
“I haven’t spoken to him in years,” Trump told Fox News reporter Peter Doocy when asked about pardoning Combs. “He used to really like me a lot, but 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.”
Edit to add the last two paragraphs of the story as the title is open ended and click baity:
On Friday, he resisted giving a definitive answer on whether or not he would pardon Combs.
“It’s not a popularity contest, so I don’t know,” he said. “I would certainly look at the facts. If I think somebody was mistreated, whether they like me or don’t like me, it wouldn’t have any impact on me.”
