Joss Whedon, sci-fi TV/movie god and the man behind Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Firefly, Avengers 1 & 2 and Dollhouse lost his mind after the 2016 election. It seems he still hasn’t recovered, because in a tweet earlier today, he said he wished President Trump would “just quietly die.”

This is not the first time Whedon has wished death on someone from the GOP.
He once wished Speaker Paul Ryan a pretty awful death by rhino.
And was actually glad his mother is dead so she doesn’t have to see what’s become of the country.
Today I gratefully give my mother the gift of having been dead for 25 years and not having to see what a tub of fuckery our country's become

He’s also made fun of cancer patients, compared Ivanka Trump to a dog and his ex-wife famously said he’s a “hypocrite preaching feminist ideals.”
Admire the guy’s work but it sounds like he has some issues he needs to work through.
