In the wake of a federal judge ruling that President Donald Trump may not legally block people on Twitter from seeing his posts, author Stephen King revealed Wednesday why he believes Trump took the action with him.

"I might've said he had his head somewhere where a certain yoga position would be necessary to get it there. And that was it, man," King said Wednesday on CBS' "The Late Show With Stephen Colbert."

The judge ruled Wednesday Trump may not legally block Twitter users because that violates their free speech under the First Amendment.

King revealed he also blocked Trump and Vice President Mike Pence.

"It was boring, so I blocked him," King said about Pence. "He's like the mean doctor on a soap opera… he has that look."
