At one point on Sunday morning Woods’ tweeted: ‘This disgusting pig is DIRECTLY responsible for the murder of two good policemen. No discussion’.

The tweet included a photo of Sharpton at a protest against police.

Woods later took down that post, reports Daily Caller, but he continued tweeting using a series of hashtags including '#PigSharpton', '#RaceHucksters', '#TurnYourBack', '#BlueLivesMatter' 

Woods, 67, even called for a boycott of Sony Entertainment - after executives from the company recently promised to work with Sharpton after leaked emails featured racist comments.

The president also came in for criticism including a tweet that featured a photo of Sharpton and Obama and the text ‘mission accomplished’.

Woods also applauded the NYPD officers who turned their backs on Mayor de Blasio during his press conference following Saturday's shootings.

This isn’t the first time Woods has used Twitter to express his political views.

Last year he called President Obama ‘a true abomination’ and then tweeted that he didn’t think he would work again because of his opinions.

'I don’t expect to work again. I think Barack Obama is a threat to the integrity and future of the Republic. My country first,' he wrote in response.
