Stephen King is widely known for writing horror fiction, but his Twitter feed can be just as intense. Whether he\u2019s using biting sarcasm, dark humor, or political commentary, his posts often provoke strong reactions and reflect his sharp views on current events. This collection highlights tweets that blend shock, wit, and criticism, showing another side of the master storyteller.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stephen King Returns to X with Harsh Words for Trump and Musk<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Stephen King is back on X \u2014 and he didn\u2019t hold back. On February 20, 2025, the best-selling author reappeared on the platform with a blunt message for former President Donald Trump and platform owner Elon Musk. \u201cJust wanted to say that Trump is a traitorous, Putin-loving dipshit! Goes double for Elon!\u201d he posted shortly after writing, \u201cI\u2019m baaaack! Did you miss me?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

King had previously left the platform in November 2024, citing a \u201ctoxic\u201d environment following Trump\u2019s reelection. At the time, he told followers to find him on Threads, later becoming more active on Bluesky, where he continued criticizing Trump and Musk regularly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Just a day before returning to X, King posted on Bluesky that Trump was \u201cblaming Ukraine for the war and calling Zelensky a dictator,\u201d calling out what he sees as Trump\u2019s deliberate misinformation. A week earlier, he accused both Trump and Musk of disregarding the Constitution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Interestingly, King\u2019s return came on the same day as the theatrical release of The Monkey, a film based on his short story. However, his X activity has focused solely on political commentary, not promotion. His comeback tweet earned over 100,000 likes within hours, proving that his words still draw a massive audience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
