Many find the Republican delegate's post against the Democratic front-runner offensive and threatening. In an interview, Folk said that he still want Hillary Clinton to go on trial but not necessarily be executed. "It could have been said a little bit better," Folk said regretting about his post. "I regret the tone, and the second part of that tweet. The biggest misconception is that for some reason, everybody thinks I made a death threat, which I did not. Clearly it was not that."

United Airlines Suspends Michael Folk

According to Bloomberg, Michael Folk is also a pilot at United Airlines but the airline has suspended him following his scandalous post. "This pilot has been removed from flying pending our investigation," United Airlines tweeted. "We are appalled by his threatening comments."

Not only did Folk lose his right to fly with United Airlines, the West Virginia Democratic Party is also calling him to resign. "Not only are Delegate Folk's words concerning, they are disturbing," Belina Biafore said. "Folk's actions should deem him as unfit to serve."
