Outspoken liberal actor Tom Arnold tweeted out what he claimed was Hope Hicks’ “personal cell” phone number after news broke she was positive with Covid-19, and Twitter has taken no action against the account.
In a since-deleted tweet, Arnold reportedly wrote, “Silent thoughts & prayers aren't enough for national treasure Hope Hicks. She needs to hear them.” He then shared what he said was her “personal cell.”
Sharing someone’s cell phone number is in violation of Twitter’s conduct rules – it’s the reason Kanye West recently got locked out of his account – but Arnold’s account has been active since the posting, enough that he even responded to reports he’d shared the phone number and appeared to defend himself.
“I was being nice!!” he wrote in one posting about it.
