All of this seems a little early, to be honest, even if Peter Doocy of Fox News asked the question in response to Trump’s recent pardons.
Both Trump and Diddy are well-known in New York, and on an episode of “Celebrity Apprentice” in 2012, Trump said, “I like Diddy… He’s a terrific man and a good buddy of mine, you know.”
However, Trump seemed to disassociate himself from Diddy in his response, stating that they haven’t talked or seen each other in years.
Trump claims that his friendship with Diddy “busted up” when he entered politics, but he maintains that this would not affect his consideration of possible clemency.
Diddy is now on trial in Manhattan after entering a not guilty plea to two charges of sex trafficking, two counts of transportation to participate in prostitution, and one count of racketeering conspiracy.
