Sean “Diddy” Combs is currently in federal prison, facing RICO charges related to alleged sex trafficking. If convicted, he will spend the rest of his life in prison. Unless, of course, his former friend Donald Trump wins the presidency and pardons the former billionaire.
And Media Take Out has confirmed that people on Diddy's team have contacted Donald Trump's presidential campaign, and have already begun campaigning for a pardon.
Donald Trump and Diddy have been friends for 30 years. The two have partied together, their families have spent time together, and they both know each other's secrets.
When Donald Trump was elected president in 2016, Diddy and Trump decided it would be better if they didn't publicly acknowledge their friendship. But behind the scenes, the two men remained friends – and are still close today, Media Take Out has been told.
Now, in a last-ditch effort to stay out of prison, Media Take Out has learned that Diddy is using secret channels — to see if Trump would consider a possible pardon if elected.
Diddy's friend told Media Take Out, “He has reached out to Trump through mutual friends. I don't know if Trump will win the election or pardon his former friend. But [Diddy] He is desperate.”
Diddy and Donald Trump both grew up in New York in the 1980s and 1990s, and in many ways – they were two of the most popular celebrities in the city in those days. It's not surprising that the two wealthy bachelors struck up a friendship.
