Left-leaning horror writer Stephen King was met with a flood of criticism Monday after a bizarre social media rant that claimed Donald Trump 'has never had a child.'

Trump, in fact, has five children - Donald Jr., Ivanka, Eric, Tiffany, and Barron.

Onlookers on X were quick to point that out.

Other claims in King's post - like that the president 'has no life experience' - were ridiculed as well.

The post read in full: 'Trump: Has never had a child. Has been married 3 times[.] Ran several businesses into the ground[.] Never ran a home, couldn't make a bed to save his ass.

'Calls people he works with dumb, losers, etc. Has never done sweat labor[.] Has never served on a local committee. Has no life experience.'

It drew a response from Trump's eldest, Donald Jr.

Continued below.

Considering the outlandish stories King writes, I'm not surprised. He has a very vivid imagination.
Very true. Many were fueled by certain substances. I’ve read at least 50 of his books.

Why do these Hollywood celebs get involved in politics. The same as sports people. They ruin their careers as soon as they open their mouths. I use to look up to Robert Deniro and now he is a has been and real grumpy old man. The same with King.

I think King is a bit deranged. He was spouting off without knowing what he was talking about.
Maybe? Who knows? Or he was just poorly misinformed.
