The conservative radio legend Rush Limbaugh passed away on Wednesday morning at the age of 70 after a battle with lung cancer. After news of his death broke, hateful liberals wasted no time in celebrating his death in the most sickening of ways possible.

The ultra-liberal Huffington Post described Limbaugh as the “bigoted king of talk radio” in the publication’s official obituary for him.

Liberals were quick to bash Limbaugh on their own Twitter pages after his passing, with each of them seemingly trying to one-up one another by hurling the most below the belt attacks possible at the deceased icon.

“Rush Limbaugh was one of the most harmful and poisonous people in the modern United States of America,” tweeted Jared Yates Sexton, a political commentator and associate professor at Georgia Southern University. “His pursuit of wealth and power hurt untold numbers of people and wrought incalculable damage to politics as a public good, society as a whole, and the planet itself.”

“Rush Limbaugh was a terrible human being in life, and I refuse to abide by the convention that his death absolves him from criticism for his legacy of bigotry,” tweeted pediatrician and writer Daniel Summers.

Crooked Media cohost Louis Virtel went so far as to say that he stopped talking to his own aunt after he learned that she listened to Limbaugh’s radio show.

“Once I learned my aunt listened to Rush Limbaugh, I knew never to speak to that aunt again,” he tweeted. “Thanks, Rush!”

By Wednesday afternoon, the hashtag “rest in piss” was trending on Twitter as liberal used it to continue to celebrate this passing.

Thankfully, there were positive tributes to Limbaugh as well, with former President Donald Trump releasing a statement honoring the conservative icon in the way that he deserves to be remembered.

“The great Rush Limbaugh has passed away to a better place, free from physical pain and hostility,” Trump said. “His honor, courage, strength, and loyalty will never be replaced. Rush was a patriot, a defender of Liberty, and someone who believed in all of the greatness our Country stands for.”

“Rush was a friend to myself and millions of Americans—a guiding light with the ability to see the truth and paint vivid pictures over the airwaves,” he added. “Melania and I express our deepest condolences to his wonderful wife, Kathryn, his family, and all of his dedicated fans. He will be missed greatly.”
