The White House spun out an enraged statement blasting "Star Wars" icon Mark Hamill as "sick" over a social media post he shared.
The 74-year-old actor best known for playing Luke Skywalker in the sci-fi blockbusters shared an AI-generated image on Bluesky that appeared to show the 79-year-old president lying in a grave beneath a headstone reading "Donald J. Trump, 1946-2026," and with a caption apparently penned by Hamill, reported Mediaite.
If Only He should live long enough to witness his inevitable devastating loss in the midterms, be held accountable for his unprecedented corruption, impeached, convicted & humiliated for his countless crimes," Hamill posted Wednesday afternoon. "Long enough to realize hell be disgraced in the history books, forevermore. #don_TheCON.

(2,390 posts)I don't think it matters to him whether or not he is favorably written about, as long as his name gets mentioned more than anyone else.
Fame versus infamy, it's all the same to him.
Construction versus destruction, whatever, as long as he did it.

(14,211 posts)I'm posting it here because the story got it wrong. The tombstone lists 1946-2024, not 2026, so it's just satire unrelated to the alleged assassination attempt.

(42,421 posts)... in other words, he's already dead.
So Mark Hamill is suggesting that Chump shouldn't die before he gets his true come-uppance, loss, impeachment, humiliation, etc. I don't know, it seems that Hamill deserves to be thanked for this.

"He should live long enough to... be held accountable for his... crimes."
Actually, I was wishing him the opposite of dead, but apologize if you found the image inappropriate.

There are others that he has posted that implied physical harm to Democratic politicians, but I don't remember the specific ones at the moment.

(11,296 posts)I wish Trump would suffer a debilitating stroke in the next 10 minutes, on camera, falling into a sharp corner of something solid. I want him to smack his head hard enough to go unconscious and to fall with nothing stopping his head from bouncing several times off of the floor. I want his all on camera because I am going to record it and anytime I feel even slightly bad, I am going to watch it again on super slo-mo replay over and over until I am crying from the laughter at Two-Scoops' expense.
I want his crippled body to become a living corpse and his power of speech to be 100% lost in stroke deficit.
He already wears diapers, so the shitting himself is not new, but an extended stay in Depends land would not hurt my soul any...
I want him to be aware of everything and incapable of saying anything, moving anything or escaping the ridicule and celebration of a relieved planet.
I want him to watch me get arrested for public intoxication while celebrating his demise like my wedding reception, Mardi Gras and New Year's Eve 1999 all wrapped into one.
I want him to KNOW but be unable to say anything about getting cucked by his whore of a 3rd rental womb.
I want his kids to watch his body actually rot as he is kept alive with machines but denied the ability to speak ever again.
I want him to suffer, and then suffer some more and then when he is begging - saying "please sir, I have had enough winning, there's too much winning"... THEN he has my permission to die, but only after I am allowed to pre-wet his grave site with fresh urine and feces before his remains are placed into the Earth.
Fuck him. All I want is for him to die so horrifically that it would make "Pinhead" from the "Hellraiser" films say "damn...that's getting to be a bit much". I want his name to be as infamous as Judas or Benedict Arnold. I want him to KNOW that nothing he ever did will last more than a commercial break as his body assumes room temperature (hopefully now).

(16,431 posts)Alas, he took it down.
Probably got a rash of shit from the trolls.
Apparently the RW and Krasnov don't recall the image he posted of President Biden tied up in the back of a pickup truck.
It's funny if they do it, but this side had better not.
Good job Mark.
See you on Blue Sky.

(26,704 posts)He's wishing for him to live long enough to see the consequences of his actions.
I waver between the two.
Part of me wants this OVER. The other part is not thrilled with a more competent Vance/Thiel administration and longs to see Trump put through the wringer, slowly and emotionally painfully, as a lesson to those who may decide to take his path.
