JFC. No wonder so many of the witnesses were/are so intent on disguising themselves. Their terror might be well founded if this animal gets out.

BEG YOUR PARDON!
The president knows the shamed rap mogul and wants to know the facts of the case.

Donald Trump refused to dismiss the possibility of a pardon for Sean "Diddy Combs, even though the rap tycoon is currently on trial on sex trafficking and other serious charges.
The president said he was aware that he might be asked for clemency.
Nobodys asked, he told reporters. But I know people are thinking about it. I think some people have been very close to asking.
First of all, Id look at whats happening. And I havent been watching it too closely.

..............and yes, I know a POTUS can only pardon federal crimes, not state ones.
Not worth mentioning.

On edit: why do you always post these things twice? Please delete one. Again, unnecessary.

(34,947 posts)He has been pardoning seditionists and fraudsters--people just like him. Time to move on to the sex offenders and human traffickers. (Been saying all along that the kompromat Putin has on Trump involves the both of those things....)
