Consider that they're already bending their TOS for important world leaders. If a world leader says something bigoted that would get you or I banned, they won't. So it makes sense to soft-ban them.

It doesn't even have to be a "world leader", TOS enforcement seems to be stronly partisan (or worse, completely random) and only really big outcries change that.
