Twitch and Kick star Felix "xQc" has responded to Steven "Destiny's" recent comments about the person who attempted to assassinate Donald Trump. During a livestream earlier today (July 17, 2024), xQc watched a Piers Morgan Uncensored episode during which Destiny appeared as a guest. At one point, Morgan asked the 35-year-old if he "condemned" the person who tried to shoot Trump.
The political commentator's response was:
"No. Not here, not in front of these people. Absolutely not!"
Upon hearing this, xQc said:
"Guys, I cannot back this behavior. Guys, you remember when I said earlier, 'Sometimes it's going to suck. Sometimes people make you look loser for saying GG and sometimes it's going to hurt,' or whatever, right? It's one of those times where I know you don't want to take a knee or whatever."
According to xQc, the Nebraska native should have done the "right thing" on the show:
"But what it means is to do better. Against them, against the public, against Piers Morgan, you have to say, 'Yeah.' I'd still do the right thing. It's not constantly on business. It's called being a f**ker. Okay? You're being a f**ker."

"Somebody who has completely lost his moral compass" - Piers Morgan responds to Destiny "not condemning" the person who tried to assassinate Donald Trump
Piers Morgan expressed his surprise at Destiny's comments and said the Kick streamer was somebody who had "lost his moral compass":
"Wow! You do not condemn a deranged shooter shooting Donald Trump? Actually, no, you know what Charlie? It's not actually the behavior of a child. It's the behavior of somebody who has completely lost his moral compass and any sense of decency."
On July 17, 2024, Destiny got banned on Kick for the first time. The news spread like wildfire on social media, with netizens speculating that the action was taken in response to his comments about the Donald Trump situation.
The content creator later took to X to reveal that he had been suspended from the Stake-backed platform for "hate speech." He also disclosed that he had to serve a two-week-long ban, as his channel would be reinstated on July 31, 2024.
