A popular YouTuber became mayor of a US town, banned straight people and was then impeached all in the same day.

Elijah Daniel spent two days contacting US towns asking to be their mayor, in order to make a statement against Donald Trump’s Muslim ban.

After being unsuccessful, he finally managed to find an easy route in a town called Hell.

The YouTuber had spotted a proclamation document from the town’s former mayor saying Hell ‘needs a mayor’ and that ‘no one else wants the job.’

So he decided to take the opportunity by paying £100 to become mayor for the day.



During his short tenure as mayor of Hell, Elijah banned heterosexuals from entering the town, in a nod to the similar ban issued by Mr Trump earlier this year.

He wrote: ‘Growing up, I was always told that homosexuals would go to Hell. Now the heterosexuals are trying to take this from us too.’

But unfortunately for Elijah, shortly after he’d announced his ban to his 500,000 Twitter followers, he was impeached from his post and was no longer the mayor of hell.

He wasn’t too upset though as he said ‘everyone who becomes mayor there gets impeached’.

Elijah added that perhaps Donald Trump should also try being impeached.
