He wrote the following message:
“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. Long enough to realize he’ll be disgraced in the history books, forevermore. #don_theCON.”
He later deleted the post and revised his message, Deadline reported. He rewrote this:
"Accurate Edit for Clarity: ;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."
The White House Rapid Response account responded by calling Hamill "one sick individual" and posted the following: "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."
Social media users were quick to respond.
"Remember when your guy posted this? Cuz I do," liberal commentator Jo, who has one million followers on X, wrote.
"Weak, fickle, brittle snowflakes. Can dish it but can't take it. And Mark Hamill actually is hoping Trump lives long enough to be held accountable," Wajahat Ali, writer and co-host of the Democracy-ish podcast, wrote on X.
"For saying he wants Donald to live? Mkay," liberal pundit Art Candee wrote on X.
"If you think Mark Hamill's post is wrong but Trump's is OK, then you are part of a cult," entrepreneur and political commentator Ed Krassenstein wrote on X.
"I'm old enough to remember when Trump retweeted this. Yet, MAGA is upset with Mark Hamill hoping that the loathsome piece of [expletive] lives long enough to see himself be held accountable for his crimes against America? Really?" Climate justice activist and musician Bill Madden wrote on Bluesky.
