Kim Kardashian praised for her short but succinct tweet against Trump's 'Muslim ban'
Celebrities have been rushing to social media to condemn President Trump's recent Muslim ban.
We saw a number of their protestations materialised at last night’s SAG Awards ceremony.
Kim Kardashian’s short but succinct Twitter post has particularly been receiving praise.
She tweeted the word "Statistics" and attached data from a study by the Cato Institute on the chances of death by a foreign-born terrorist:

@KimKardashian let me add. I acknowledge that you have a separate opinion from your husband but you are a queen, get that man in line.
