Mark Hamill gets dissed for 'picking on' Ivanka Trump's son in a 'Star Wars' costume

Mark Hamill's response to an Ivanka Trump family photo featuring her child in a "Star Wars" costume seemed mean-spirited to some.

The actor who played Luke Skywalker is not the good guy in this attack – at least according to social media fans who thought he was being too harsh on the Trump family. 

Mark Hamill ripped into Ivanka Trump who posted a family photo on social media sites over the weekend. 

Trump wore a strapless evening dress and stood next to her husband, Jared Kushner in a tuxedo. Standing in front of them and hamming it up for the camera stood one of their sons in a "Star Wars" Stormtrooper costume.

Trump captioned the photo, "The Force is strong in my family."

Hamill, who has a history of clapping back at President Donald Trump, tweeted the photo and wrote, "You misspelled "Fraud." His hashtag was #GoForceYourself. 

Some saw the response as mean-spirited and easily a dark-side move.

A stormtrooper may work for the evil empire, but the costume wearer was just a kid, people pointed out.  

"Nice. Picking on a kid," one user wrote. "High class."

A grandmother thought the tweet was too political.

"Are you going to attack my grand daughter and my family too because I like Trump?" she asked on Twitter.  

Still, Hamill had his defenders. People said he wasn't attacking a child, but rather, he was calling the family a farce.

"He didn't go after any children," wrote one user. "Reading comprehension is important."
