American celebrities react to Trump’s Twitter ban

American celebrities have taken to their Twitter accounts to express their reaction over the permanent suspension of President Donald Trump’s Twitter account.

The company banned the @realdonaldtrump account for good on Friday, citing ‘risk’ that the president would incite further violence..

Twitter first locked Trump out of his account on Wednesday for inflammatory posts after a pro-Trump mob stormed the Capitol, but the company lifted the suspension the following day, usatoday.com reports.

“After a close review of recent tweets from the @realDonaldTrump account and the context around them — specifically how they are being received and interpreted on and off Twitter — we have permanently suspended the account due to the risk of further incitement of violence,” read a company statement late Friday.

Many stars cheered the decision in the wake of the company’s announcement.

Supermodel and cookbook author, “Chrissy Teigen simply tweeted, “AAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHHA…”

“What the (expletive) took you so long @jack?” asked Julia Louis-Dreyfus, addressing Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey.

Mark Ruffalo thanked Twitter, while Mark Hamill asked, “And how is YOUR day going?” along with a screenshot of the president’s suspended account.

“The year is looking up again,” wrote Jameela Jamil.

The View co-host Meghan McCain retweeted Twitter’s announcement and added a warning: “He’s gonna burn the White House to the ground.”

Comedian Sarah Cooper questioned the president’s state of mind following the ban.

“Uhm,” she wrote. “Anyone worried he might lose his mind. Who the hell is going to explain to him that his precious Twitter followers are all gone.”

Popular actress, Whoopi Goldberg just wrote, “Finally,” and comedian Wanda Sykes called for Twitter to suspend more accounts.

“FINALLY!” she wrote. “Can we put them on a family plan? Don Jr, Ivanka, Eric, Tiffany, Jared, you too Melania…Shut all of them down!”

According to author Stephen King, Twitter “finally got fed up with Trump’s lying (expletive) and took away his megaphone.”

“Good. Makes me proud to be a twitterhead,” he added.

Hillary Clinton called back to one of her past tweets during the 2016 election in which she ran against Trump for the presidency.

At the time, she tweeted at Trump, “Delete your account.” On Friday, Clinton resurfaced her old tweet with a check mark emoji.

“Twitter finally banned Trump!” wrote Sacha Baron Cohen, who has called for Twitter to ban the president in the past. “We did it!”

Others, however, took up issues with the suspension as they sided with the president.

“If you’re on the right or not woke or want to raise questions about the integrity of our electoral system, you’re next,” wrote Megyn Kelly.

User @ozzygutierrez1 replied to Kelly that “there is a difference between raising questions about the integrity of our electoral system and actively undermining our institutions and advocating for violence like he did.”

Meanwhile, Trump’s son Donald Trump Jr. tweeted that “free-speech no longer exists in America. It died with big tech and what’s left is only there for a chosen few,” he said.
