38-year-old ‘Sucker for Pain’ rapper Lil Wayne is thanking ex-US-President Donald Trump, 74, for issuing him with a Presidential Pardon during his (Trump’s) final few days in Office!
Wayne was one of 143 people whom Trump pardoned before his term ended; Wayne was facing federal weapons charges for carrying a gold-plated handgun on a private plane in 2019.
The rapper wrote on Twitter last night, thanking Trump: “I want to thank President Trump for recognizing I have so much more to give to my family, my art, and my community.” He also thanked his attorney Bradford Cohen, writing: “I also want to thank @bradfordcohen for working so diligently to secure another chance for me. Love!” Wayne signed off his tweet with his real name: “- Dwayne Michael Carter Jr.” Take a look below and let us know what you think:…HAVE YOU EVER RECEIVED A PRESIDENTIAL PARDON BEFORE???
