Celebrities are usually pretty open and honest when it comes to how they feel about Donald Trump, and Charlie Sheen is no exception. Roughly 20 hours ago, Sheen took to Twitter to ask God to take Donald Trump next. “Dear God” Sheen said at the beginning of the tweet. He followed with writing “Trump next, please!” six times followed by an icon featuring the middle finger.

As Inquisitr reported after the tweet was first made, Charlie Sheen’s request for God to take Donald Trump next was likely in response to the massive amount of celebrity deaths this year. Charlie’s request for God to take Donald Trump next was made shortly after the death of Debbie Reynolds was confirmed.

Sheen described the media’s reaction to his request to God as “inanely emblematic of the panoramic timorousness.” Sheen also pointed out the fact that, in his tweet, he was talking to God and not all of the media outlets or social media users who responded to his request for Donald Trump to die next.

Per Fox News, some Twitter users called Sheen a “scumbag” and a “useless cockroach.”
