*Gabrielle Union and Taraji P. Henson took to social media to respond to the viral video of a psychotic pro-Trump supporter going off on a Pennsylvania-bound Delta Airlines flight last week.
In the video, an unidentified man yells “Donald Trump, baby!” before asking, “We got some Hillary bi—-s on here?”
In case you missed the video, peep it below:

Many were quick to point on how in Trump’s AmeriKKKa, angry white males are allowed to freely harass (and physically assault) citizens and be overall social menaces, because if this disruptive Delta passenger has been black, we all know the staffers wouldn’t have hesitated to turn the plane around and have him escorted off the plane by law officials.
But this profane white boy was allowed to create a hostile environment and staffers did nothing… most likely because they too are Trump supporters and saw nothing wrong his behavior.
Delta only issued an apology after uproar erupted in response to how they handled the situation. Union and Henson were quick to tell the airline that their initial response was not good enough.
Flying @delta tomorrow. Pls let me know if I need to change my flt and take my business elsewhere. https://t.co/xUJIIHoQ9V”>https://t.co/xUJIIHoQ9V

“Flying @delta tomorrow. Pls let me know if I need to change my flt and take my business elsewhere,” tweeted Union.
Henson added: “”CHANGE YOUR FLIGHT SIS I DID!!! #EffDelta,” the actress wrote, in response to Union’s tweet. She continued to use the #EffDelta hashtag throughout her tweets and retweets about the subject.

“The time to do something was when he was reckless,” Henson tweeted when the idea that the passenger in question should be banned from all Delta flights moving forward. “Too late.”

Delta has since said that in the future they will try to handle unruly customers a bit better: “We have followed up with the teams involved and all agree that this customer should not have been allowed to continue on the flight,” the airline said in a statement on their site. “Our responsibility for ensuring all customers feel safe and comfortable with Delta includes requiring civil behavior from everyone. The behavior we see in this video does not square with our training or culture and follow up will continue so we can better ensure our employees will know they will be fully supported to make the right decisions when these issues arise.”
