WASHINGTON (TNND) — "Star Wars" actor Mark Hamill's recent social media post about President Donald Trump is coming under fire just weeks after a third assassination attempt on the president.

Hamill shared what appears to be an AI-generated photo on his verified BlueSky account, depicting Trump in a flower-surrounded grave, in front of a gravestone that reads, "Donald J. Trump 1946-2024," with the words "If Only" written on the photo.

"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 wrote. "Long enough to realize he'll be disgraced in the history books, forevermore."

President Trump's team was quick to condemn the post, calling Hamill a "sick individual" on the administration's Rapid Response account.

These Radical Left lunatics just can’t help themselves. This kind of rhetoric is exactly what has inspired three assassination attempts in two years against our President," the account said.

Supporters of the president are condemning Hamill for sharing the image, claiming Democrats won't condemn the actor for his post.

Hamill, a vocal Democrat supporter, was invited by former President Barack Obama just this week to visit his presidential library in Chicago.

Under the Biden Administration, Hamill made an appearance at the White House to visit with Biden and popped into a press briefing, where he spoke about being honored to visit the Oval Office, calling the then-president "Joe-bi-Wan Kenobi."

Many critics of the post are not only calling out the graphic nature of the image, but also the timing of when Hamill shared it as political rhetoric inciting violence against Trump has become a prominent issue online.

Just weeks ago, Trump was purportedly the target of a shooting at the White House Correspondents' Dinner, where suspect Cole Tomas Allen is now facing federal charges for attempting to kill the president.
