Stephen King and Donald Trump have never been fans of one another but the celebrated author has now doubled down on his disdain for the POTUS.
Following a spat during the release of the movie adaptation of King’s IT where Trump ended up blocking the author on Twitter, King banned Trump from seeing his movies. Due to a recent ruling, federal judge Naomi Reice Buchwald stated that President Donald Trump violates the First Amendment by blocking critics on Twitter, so it seems he will now have to unblock Stephen King.
How does King feel about this, and will he start interacting with the president again after his unblocking? King spoke to Colbert recently and gave his thoughts on the matter.
