Aslan, who had been host of the fairly new CNN ****** Believer with Reza Aslan, had tweeted about Trump and the president's tweets after the London Bridge attacks. He wrote, "This piece of shit is **t just an embarrassment to America and a stain on the presidency. He’s an embarrassment to humankind."
The next day, Aslan, an Iranian-American who is a religious scholar and author, apologized for the offensive tweet.
I should **t have used a profanity to describe the President when responding to his shocking reaction to the #LondonAttacks. My statement: pic.twitter.com/pW69jjpoZy
