00:00Sean Diddy Combs, would you consider pardoning him?

00:04Well, he was essentially, I guess, sort of half-innocent.

00:07I don't know what they do. He's still in jail or something.

00:11He was celebrating a victory, but he seems, I guess, it wasn't as good as a victory.

00:16Probably, you know, I was very friendly with him.

00:22I got along with him great and seemed like a nice guy.

00:26I didn't know him well, but when I ran for office, he was very hostile.

00:31He said some not-so-nice things about you, sir.

00:33Yeah, and it's hard, you know, like you, we're human beings.

00:38Right.

00:39And we don't like to have things cloud our judgment, right?

00:42But when you knew someone and you were fine, and then you run for office,

00:48and he made some terrible statements.

00:50So, I don't know, it's more difficult.

00:52It makes it more, I'm being honest, it makes it more difficult to do.

00:56But more likely a no for combs, it sounds like.

01:00I would say so.

01:00Okay.
