Rush Limbaugh’s shocking cancer diagnosis has sparked a flurry of nasty tweets about the conservative radio host and Republican kingmaker.

The 69-year-old broke the news of his advanced lung cancer during his radio program on Monday, telling listeners he was taking some time off to determine the best course of treatment for himself.

While his supporters were quick to send over their well wishes, some of the controversial radio host’s critics were less than supportive about his declining health.

Some appeared to celebrate his cancer diagnosis while others pointed out his prior controversial beliefs about the U.S. health care system.

Actor Jon Cryer tweeted: ‘I hope Rush Limbaugh gets the best medical treatment and recovers quickly. And I hope that while he is doing it he thinks about why he doesn’t think poor people deserve the same thing.’

Comedian Nick Jack Pappas wrote: ‘I’m so sorry for lung cancer, no deserves. I wish him the best medical care he’s worked on denying to others.’

‘Rush Limbaugh has spent decades pushing a horrid agenda that he knew was ruining numerous lives and getting people killed. He deserves proper medical treatment for his lung cancer. Not going to root for him to die. But I really don’t give a sh*t what happens to him. Sorry,’ the Palmer Report tweeted.

Other critics focused on Limbaugh frequently being accused of hate-filled speech, including bigotry and blatant racism.

Film producer Tariq Nasheed tweeted: ‘Rush Limbaugh has spend decades spewing dangerous anti-Black racism. Now he has cancer… I know we shouldn’t celebrate one’s misfortunes… but #PartyOverHere.’
