Or maybe its just because he is the President of the United States. I find it incredible that some people feel so strongly that these rules and terms have to apply perfectly equally to everyone. That's not reality.
If Twitter existed in 1939, would Kal Penn be mad at Roosevelt for threatening Hitler with an invasion if he didn't stop his shit? Sounds weird, but all externalities considered I doubt it.
Also weird that Kal didn't speak out when a state senator called for Trump's assassination on Facebook [1]. Sure is against Facebook's ToS.
Point being: Kal, and the general anti-Trump population, doesn't actually care about breaking Twitter's ToS. They don't care about any individual action he takes. They use those actions to reinforce this immutable evil picture of Trump in their head, and then look for any excuse to get that zinger in on him because it will play well with the liberal bubble they live in.

- maxerickson 9y agoAre you singling out someone prominent for criticism about how they singled out someone prominent in an ironic way or was it by accident?
- 013a 9y agoIs Kal Pen famous or something? I just copied the name from the Twitter profile.
- maxerickson 9y agoHe's at least a B list celebrity, "Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle".
- lightbyte 9y agoHe was also a member of the Obama administration.
