After getting indefinitely suspended from some of his social media accounts, Donald Trump has officially been banned from Twitter as of today. Because the recent storming of the Capitol that happened under his presidency, many people, including famous musicians, have been extremely vocal on their thoughts about Trump being banned.
Laura Jane Grace, front woman for Laura Jane Grace & The Devouring Mothers, took to her Twitter account to share her excitement of the news on Trump. “Mmmm…delicious….nom nom nom nom nom” captioned Grace with a screenshot of Trump’s official Twitter account stating that it was suspended for violating the Twitter rules.
Yoko Ono posted to her Twitter account stating, “Dear Friends, I would like to share this message with you as my response to @realDonaldTrump. Love, Yoko.” With that, Yoko Ono posted a 19 second video that contained audio of her yelling in an odd manner.
Rock duo Best Coast waisted no time expression how they feel. “I’ve had him blocked since 2016 lol.”
Even the official Twitter account made a statement regarding the situation. “After close review of recent Tweets from the @realDonaldTrump account and the context around them we have permanently suspended the account due to the risk of further incitement of violence.”
Luscious Jackson, alternative rap-rock group, simply posted, “Great photo from today” with an attached screenshot of Trump’s Twitter profile stating it was suspended.
Rob Sheridan has made his thoughts and feelings on Trump very public for quite some time now. Today, he posted, “Very hard to take this country seriously when social media platforms deem POTUS too dangerous but Congress is like ‘a few of us are proposing to get rid of this guy, but we’re not allowed to file it until monday, so, have a good weekend everyone, hope nothing bad happens!'”
Musician and journalist Questlove responded by saying, “This day feel like Newteenth.”
DJ GRiZ added some humor to the situation by stating, “Thank you Twitter. You didn’t give us an edit button but you banned trump so for now we’re even.”
Ice T also put some humor in his response by quoting a tweet containing a photo of Trump on the phone with the caption “What’s my Myspace password” and added his own commentary by saying “I’m DONE…Lol.”
While this tweet doesn’t belong to a celebrity or musician, it adds to the humor that a lot are choosing to see in Trump getting banned from his Twitter. An account by the name of @barronjohn1946 said, “Hello I am brand new to Twitter, what are you guys up to.” The profile photo is what really seals the humor this profile is getting at. The photo is of Trump disguised with a mustache.
