Chelsea Handler called on Twitter to “remove” President Donald Trump’s account, saying, “No leader of any country should be tweeting threats to people and other countries.”
“Can @Twitter just remove Trump’s account, already? No leader of any country should be tweeting threats to people and other countries,” the 43-year-old comedian and actress tweeted Friday to her millions of followers. (RELATED: Celebs Respond Predictably to Trump’s Late Night Iran Tweet)

“That would actually force him to talk more and explain policies and answer questions on tape, and we all know how that goes,” she added.

The former talk show host never explained what the “Trump threat” was that led to her tweet. But it did come after the president tweeted about his former personal attorney Michael Cohen and said that he was lying about the president allegedly being aware of a meeting his son Donald Trump Jr. had with a Russian lawyer to get himself out of an “unrelated jam”
“I did NOT know of the meeting with my son, Don Jr. Sounds to me like someone is trying to make up stories in order to get himself out of an unrelated jam (Taxi cabs maybe?). He even retained Bill and Crooked Hillary’s lawyer. Gee, I wonder if they helped him make the choice,” Trump tweeted earlier in the day.
