Anti-Trump ‘Avengers’ Director Mocks Teenage Cancer Survivors While Targeting Paul Ryan

   DailyWire.com

On Thursday, in a now-deleted tweet, Democrat mega-donor and Avengers director Joss Whedon took shots at teenage cancer survivors visiting the White House. The anti-Trump director was targeting Republican Speaker of the House Paul Ryan when he referred to the young women who beat cancer during their childhood as “Not a 10.”

Ryan apparently caught the eye of Whedon on Thursday, when the speaker posted a photo of the meeting he and the young girls had in Washington.

“Advocacy is not limited to adults. These Wisconsin teens shared some powerful stories with me about their fight against childhood cancer,” wrote Ryan.

The teens lending their hands to fight against childhood cancer belong to One Step Camp, which offers “camp experiences and other programs throughout the year that allow children with cancer to just be kids. Our programs offer fun, friendship and support in a safe and nurturing environment,” according to the camp’s official website. “Through the magic of childhood experiences, we help kids diagnosed with cancer reclaim their lives.”

Soon after the despicable post, Whelen was hit with condemnation from both sides of the aisle. He promptly deleted the post and offered a “apology,” which simply stated that he offended the wrong people:

Whedon became unhinged after the stunning election win of President Donald Trump in November. After the win, Whedon, who hilariously claims to be a feminist, launched a sexist attack against actress Nicole Kidman for suggesting the American people merely give Trump a chance in office.
