Dr. Laurie Santos

He said after the Diddy verdict – I had not heard this one before.

Tell me if you did before.

But President Trump said after Diddy was convicted of two of the lesser accounts, he said, well, he was essentially, I guess, sort of half innocent.

I know what they do, still in jail or something, but he was celebrating a victory, but I guess it wasn't as good of a victory –

No, it did not.

But he said, we're human beings.

We don't like to have things cloud our judgment, right?

But when you knew someone and you were fine, and then you run for office, and he made some terrible statements.

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

Makes it more, I'm being honest, makes it more difficult to do when it comes to pardoning someone.

So

To me, that was the point.

And I thought about this when I read the headlines that Trump has now said he's not considering pardoning Diddy.

You know when you first go into the workforce, someone always gives you this advice.

You meet the same people on the way up as you do on the way down.

And if Diddy had just remembered that...

Maybe he'd be in a different position right now when he wrote that letter to President Trump.

If he maybe just hadn't said, I don't know, made a comment about the political race, this might just be a warning.

You never know.

You never know whose help you're going to need.
