Despite apologizing for suggesting he would assassinate President Trump, leaders in the MAGA movement are calling for the washed up actor to be fired from the Harry Potter spin-off movie.

The #FireDepp hashtag on Twitter has gone super VIRAL thanks to President Trump’s son, Donald Trump Jr!

The 39-year-old real estate executive set Twitter ablaze Friday evening when he tweeted out TGP’s article and said, “I’d think it would be hard for @ Disney to keep him, let’s see: # FireDepp Goes VIRAL after ‘Trump Assassination’ Joke”

Some free speech has consequences. When you talk about killing a President, then no apology or excuse is good enough to save u. #FireDepp — Allergic 2 Liberals (@LibertyOKelly) June 24, 2017
