50 Cent says he'll reach out to Trump in effort to prevent a Diddy pardon

50 Cent is looking to give President Donald Trump his two cents about Sean "Diddy" Combs.

In an Instagram post on May 30, the "In da Club" rapper said he'll reach out to Trump after the president said he would "look at the facts" in Combs' case, suggesting a pardon could be on the table.

50 Cent shared a clip of the president's comments in his post and wrote that Combs "said some really bad things about Trump," adding that he will "reach out so he knows how I feel about this guy."

In a follow-up post, 50 Cent suggested Combs' past comments about Trump could prevent a potential pardon. "Donald doesn't take well to disrespect, and doesn't forget who chooses to go against him," he wrote. He also shared a screenshot of an article suggesting he was trying to "nuke" Combs' chances of pardon, clarifying, "I didn't say I would nuke anything, I simply said I will make sure Trump is aware."

Combs is on trial in New York and has pleaded not guilty to charges of sex trafficking, racketeering and transportation to engage in prostitution.

When asked in the Oval Office on May 30 about the possibility of pardoning Combs, Trump said that "nobody's asked" about it, but that "I know people are thinking about it," and "some people have been very close to asking." He went on to say that he would "look at the facts" of Combs' case. "If I think somebody was mistreated, whether they like me or don't like me, it wouldn't have any impact," he said.

50 Cent's feud with Combs recently came up in court, with Capricorn Clark, Combs' former assistant, testifying that the embattled hip-hop mogul "had an issue with" him.

'Nobody's asked': President Trump doesn't rule out pardoning Sean 'Diddy' Combs

Brian Kalt, a law professor at Michigan State University College of Law, recently told USA TODAY that Trump could pardon Combs and end his trial.

"These are federal charges (against Combs), so that’s the main limit. The matter has be federal, it has to be criminal vs. civil, and related to something that’s already been done," Kalt said. "But the person doesn't have to even be charged yet, or convicted. The Supreme Court has said preemptive pardons are OK."
