An official of Donald Trump’s education department decided to take a shot at Mark Hamill on Twitter, for Hamill’s criticism of his boss on Twitter.

It didn’t go well for him.

Education official Kevin Eck tweeted that the “Star Wars” actor should “stick to playing Han Solo’s short little (expletive).”

Well … he was a little short for a stromtrooper.

Eck previously made headlines for complaining about the all-black cast of “The Wiz.” He has since protected his tweets, But CNN’s Andrew Kaczynski shared his tweet about Hamill on Tuesday.

Hamill responded by writing “An Education Dept. employee @kevxindy should know short/little is redundant like Russian colluding/traitor or (expletive) grabbing/sexual predator.”

Bingo.
