Now it's Stephen King. Has everything devolved into politics?

Stephen King just had to get involved on social media to take a shot at Republicans after the train they were in on, heading to a West Virginia retreat struck a sanitation truck, killing the driver and seriously injuring a passenger. He tweeted:

"A trainload of Republicans on their way to a pricey retreat hit a garbage truck," he tweeted on Thursday. "My friend Russ calls that karma."

Many people thought King was being a leftist ass as many responded to his insensitive tweet.

Piers Morgan was among the first to respond by simply tweeting: "A man died in that crash, you despicable man."

Realizing that he was exposed for the ass that he is, King posted a follow-up:

"Of COURSE sorry the truck driver died."

Note, King didn't refer to the driver as a garbage truck driver as he did when he was attacking Republicans for being of a different political persuasion than his.

The anti-Stephen King attacks continued and he soon apologized tweeting:

"A rather thoughtless tweet from me concerning the train-truck crash, for which I apologize (if one is necessary). It should be pointed out, too, that those Republican politicians, who can be heartless when they vote, immediately got out to help."

So Republicans are heartless when they vote against abortion up to 20 weeks, at a time the unborn baby is able to feel pain. Republicans are heartless when they want to impose "Kate's Law" to protect Americans from illegal immigrants with prison records from waltzing into the country and get protection in so-called 'sanctuary cities' whose liberal leaders refuse to cooperate with law enforcement. And Republicans are heartless because they tend to give significantly more in charity than Democrats.

My favorite response to King came from @mmmblake1 who tweeted:

"Was it karma when that van hit you?"

She was referring to the 1999 incident when a distracted driver struck King from behind with a van. King's injuries were quite serious and he required surgeries and physical therapy.

One would think that such a gifted writer would have the capacity to see beyond politics and his leftist prejudices against people who think differently. He is apparently only good at one thing and that doesn't make him right.

Shadenfreude is never an attractive quality.

Handsome Stephen King says Pence looks like a 'soap opera villain'

Well here's a case of the pot calling the kettle 'black' where Stephen King tweets an ad hominem attack on Vice President Pence.

Kings childish tweet:

"Mike Pence looks like a soap opera villain--untrustworthy doctor with a roving eye. It's the hair. And that always stern expression." --Stephen King (@StephenKing)

Poking fun at a person's physical appearance is not only childish, but it's rather simple-minded and the weakest form of criticism.

Besides, King isn't the best-looking guy in the room and between him and Pence, I'd say King loses in looks.

Maybe he was the target of child cruelty when he was growing up and thought that, since he underwent such torturous psychological pain, making fun of someone was the best way to win an argument.

King has said that President Trump is "unfit for office" regarding his threats to North Korea, but it seems as if the president has finally gotten something done with China and Russia coming on board with sanctions, where former so-called President Obama and his two predecessors did nothing but make North Korea a nuclear player.

King also called Trump a "narcissist," and he should know. The psychological diagnosis from the horror novelist came after Trump verbally counter-attacked San Juan Mayor Carmen Yulín Cruz for her "poor leadership ability" after Hurricane Maria.

King brilliantly tweeted an "original" thought:

"Donald Trump the master of self-congratulation. His picture should be next to NARCISSIST in the dictionary."

Heavy, heavy. Did he make that one up all by himself?

Kings latest attack of Pence came after the Vice President spoke at a prayer walk in Las Vegas, where he said the city came face-to-face with pure evil when a gunman killed 58 innocent people and injured almost 500 others.

The prayer march may have upset King. He once described organized religion as "a very dangerous tool that's been misused by a lot of people."

I don't believe our Vice President misused religion to pray for the dead and wounded.

But in terms of appearance, Stephen King should look in the mirror.

Stephen King and leftist hypocrisy

Best-selling author Stephen King says that Kathy Griffin's photo of her holding the head of President Trump didn't bother him as much as the video Sunday morning that appears to show him hitting the goddess of the left, Hillary Rodham Clinton, in the back with a golf ball.

King (no relation to Rodney "Can't We All Just Get Along" King) tweeted:

"Trump thinks hitting a woman with a golf ball and knocking her down is funny. Myself, I think it indicates a severely f**ked up mind." --Stephen King (@StephenKing)

Yet King has said nothing about the NYC Central Park Shakespeare play "Julius Caesar" where a President Trump figure is assassinated by his senators.

Speaking about messed up minds, Stephen King must have a dark side that makes his horror stories so, um, horrific. I'm not saying his stories are poorly conceived, but let's face it, his brain has an extra twist to it that normal, non-violent people lack.

King claims Trump has blocked him on Twitter because he has strongly criticized the president publicly [in order to stay edgy and relevant].

However, to be fair, the account that initially tweeted the golf video has a history of sharing anti-Semitic messages as well as tweets that attack the transgender mentally ill and Muslims, BuzzFeednews reports. So we can assume the person(s) who tweeted the video is a schmuck.

The left is never shy of flaunting its hypocrisy. 

They attacked Trump when he shared an edited video appearing to show him body-slamming CNN in a wrestling match, saying it sends a message that he condones violence against the news media. But they find it hilarious when Robert De Niro says he'd like to punch Trump "in the face," or when Madonna says that she dreams of "blowing up the White House."

Stephen King is as edgy as whipped cream.
