But “Avengers” producer Joss Whedon, an outspoken critic of Trump, is also feeling the heat from some of his own fans following a tweet that called Ivanka Trump a Pekingese and her husband, Trump adviser Jared Kushner, a “Voldemort in training.”

Whedon was slammed by Trump supporters but, perhaps to his surprise, many of his own fans also expressed dismay at his harsh take.

Here are some examples of the critical tweets Whedon’s supporters sent his way.
Whedon posted numerous tweets directed at Trump during the campaign and up to the inauguration, with some comparing the new administration to the Nazi regime.
On Wednesday he tweeted, “We have dictator. Wow. We’re THAT country now.”

Clearly though, the avalanche of negative tweets sent Whedon’s way won’t stop him from expressing his thoughts on Twitter. He sent out a few more anti-Trump tweets Wednesday.
