(Maire Clayton, Headline USA) Legendary Star Wars actor Mark Hamill was slammed over recent comments where he compared President-elect Donald Trump’s win to Pearl Harbor.
Hamill took to social media Tuesday where he responded to a post about the 2024 election taking place three weeks ago.
“A Day That Will Live In Infamy,” he wrote.
The line was previously spoken by former President Franklin D. Roosevelt after the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor on Dec. 7, 1941, which caused the United States to enter into WWII.
Critics were quick to slam the once beloved actor for his comments.
“At least he found a place where he can spew his nonsense with no one pushing back,” one user wrote.

Hamill posted to Bluesky, an alternative to X, which saw millions of leftists join the platform after the 2024 election results.
“Let them rot there, they enjoy their bubbles after all,” another user added to X.
The actor was also trolled on Bluesky as well.
“How’s it feel to have Donald Trump as your next President?” one Bluesky user asked.
Another user questioned the actor on how it feels to have Trump constantly consuming his thoughts.
“Admit that you love Trump,” the user wrote. “He’s all you think or talk about. He’s your everything.”
Hamill, known for his vocal opposition to Trump, previously teamed up with the Lincoln Project to try to hinder his Madison Square Garden rally in October.
“Who would sign up, then NOT go? (except everyone who puts country over party) 🇺🇸,” while reposting the Lincoln Project’s link on how to secure tickets.
Hamill also visited the White House in May and joined a briefing to support President Joe Biden’s reelection campaign before he ultimately dropped out.
While he spoke at the briefing he told reporters he offered to call Biden “Joe-bi-Wan Kenobi.”
