The Star Wars actor has been using his platform to support Democratic candidate Joe Biden in the presidential race. As ballots are still being counted to determine who will be the next US president, Trump predicted a “great win” and alleged “major fraud on our nation”. The president also implied he would take the case to the Supreme Court in a speech given last night (November 3).
Mark Hamill Says Goodbye To 'Trump-Tanic'
Hamill eloquently tweeted a “Buh-bye” addressed to Trump, adding a plethora of blue wave emojis for good measure.
The actor reposted a video first uploaded by Twitter user @bradmiska. It is a spoof clip remaking one of the most famous scenes of Jaws, the iconic 1975 thriller directed by Steven Spielberg.
In the video, Trump is seen dancing on a sinking boat while English singer Dido sings her hit White Flag, whose lyrics seem surprisingly fitting.
“I know I left too much mess and destruction/To come back again,” sings Dido.
The clip also features prominent Republican politicians, mocked for their reluctant support to Trump.
But the spoof video quickly takes a dark turn by including several images referring to the most criticized measures adopted by the current US administration. Among these, separating families at the US border, with children temporarily placed in cages. The video also hints at Trump referring to alt-right, violent protesters in Charlottesville, Virginia, as “very fine people”.
'Star Wars' Actor Also Renames Trump 'DespotDonald'
Hamill also called Trump “DespotDonald” in a subsequent tweet where he criticized the president for last night’s claims.
“#DespotDonald declares victory as votes are still being counted-Calls election ‘a fraud on the American public, so we'll be going to the Supreme Court & we will win this,’” Hamill wrote.
“It's so weird to have an authoritarian who undermines democracy in the WH,” he continued.
No winner has been declared at present. Millions of postal votes are still to be counted, including in key battleground states that could tip the balance either way.
