Instagram rules George Lopez comment about assassinating Trump violates policy

Instagram determined that George Lopez’s threat to assassinate President Trump violates the platform’s policy and will delete the comment.

The 58-year-old comedian and actor responded to a post on social media about the Iranian government putting an $80 million bounty on Trump’s head by saying he would “do it for half” of the offer. Lopez was reacting to reports that a eulogist at Iranian Gen. Qassem Soleimani’s funeral called for the president’s assassination as payback for the general’s death.
