White House calls Mark Hamill 'sick' over AI Trump gravesite image

other · 2026-05-07

The White House recently criticized Mark Hamill, known for portraying Luke Skywalker in the original Star Wars films, calling him 'one sick individual.' This reaction came after he shared an AI-generated image on Bluesky that depicted Donald Trump in a shallow grave, marked with a headstone that read 'Donald J Trump 1946-2024.' The image was captioned 'If Only,' showing Trump with his eyes closed and surrounded by daisies. In his post, Hamill shared his wish for Trump to 'experience his inevitable devastating loss in the midterms, face accountability for his unprecedented corruption, and be impeached, convicted, and humiliated for his numerous crimes'—hoping he'd be remembered disgracefully in history. The White House later commented on X.
