Bill O’Reilly got slammed on Twitter Friday afternoon for his reaction to news of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg‘s surgery to remove cancerous nodules in her lung.

“Justice Ginsburg is very ill,” O’Reilly tweeted. “Another Justice appointment inevitable and soon. Bad news for the left.”

Justice Ginsburg is very ill. Another Justice appointment inevitable and soon. Bad news for the left. — Bill O'Reilly (@BillOReilly) December 21, 2018

This attempt at analysis, however, was blasted for tastelessness:

What an awful thing to say. My best wishes and hopes to Justice RBG for her swift recovery. As she has shown again and again, she is tough as nails. https://t.co/CNJS9f0fVi — Rep. Don Beyer (@RepDonBeyer) December 21, 2018

This is not how a healthy human being talks about a fellow human being. You are sick, dude, which is why you had to pay millions of dollars to the females who were unfortunate to work for you. https://t.co/ASwPqZuhC0 — The Reagan Battalion (@ReaganBattalion) December 21, 2018

How very Christian of you. — David Weissman (@davidmweissman) December 21, 2018

You didn't think this tweet through, did you? https://t.co/4hfh3gnX1X — Jay Caruso (@JayCaruso) December 21, 2018

She's beat cancer twice. Wishing ill on the health of your political adversaries is tasteless. Buzz off, Bill. https://t.co/5IIVw3eWYs — Tiana Lowe (@TianaTheFirst) December 21, 2018

Could've tried to hide your glee there, Billy. https://t.co/okVsRN0ohc — Perez Hilton (@PerezHilton) December 21, 2018
