Fuck around, find out.— Steven Cheung (@StevenCheung47) May 19, 2026The post appeared to reference Trump critic Rep. Thomas Massie losing the Republican primary in Kentucky’s 4th District to Trump-backed Ed Gallrein, a former Navy SEAL, in what became the most expensive House race on record.Cheung has a long history of posting divisive, Trump-like rhetoric online ― from calling a Democratic staffer a “retard” to slamming outgoing “Late Show” host Stephen Colbert as an “entitled prick.”Critics quickly hit back, branding Cheung “a disgrace” and accusing him of using cult-like rhetoric.This is a free country last I checked.

Fixed it for you 👇"...political power *within the MAGA cult."The rest of us aren't under his spell. We're just watching from a safe, sane distance. Oh, and getting ready to vote. 🍿🌊— Allie Cat (@CatAandCatB) May 20, 2026People should quote this en masse to Cheung after republicans lose the midterms.— Nunya (@imtweetn) May 20, 2026Close
