Idiot actor-comedian Patton Oswalt posted a grotesque fantasy about Trump supporters and his outrage came from a fake news story.
The star of Ratatouille, Patton Oswalt posted a tweet on Tuesday which he imagines the supporters of President Donald Trump dying from the coronavirus. He thought it would be funny to joke, “MAGAt dying from COVID-19: “Why did the *cough* media treat Trump so *cough cough* unfairly…”

He was responding to a news story that was found to be unfounded and fake posted by Vanity Fair’s Gabriel Sherman.
Trump has asked Attorney General William Barr to launch a Department of Justice investigation into the media’s coronavirus coverage.

Breitbart News reports:
Vanity Fair’s Gabriel Sherman recently cited an “anonymous source close to the White House” who alleges that President Trump “wants Justice to open investigations of the media for market manipulation.” But the Vanity Fair report never says that the president asked Barr to launch such an investigation, as Oswalt’s retweet claims.
Oswalt doesn’t like Trump supporters, in December he said that “The President is a stupid asshole and if you voted for him you’re a stupid asshole and if you still support him you’re a stupid asshole. Oh no this Tweet is going to make all the stupid assholes not like me waaaaah.”

What’s stupid is this actor believing a fake news article. This guy should be ashamed of himself.
