DawgTalkers.net Forums DawgTalk Palus Politicus Trump says Rob Reiner's death caused by "Trump derangement syndrome"

President Trump blamed the late Rob Reiner's death Monday on the director's political views, saying he died from a "mind crippling disease known as TRUMP DERANGEMENT SYNDROME."

Why it matters: The president and MAGA allies condemned anyone who celebrated conservative activist Charlie Kirk's death earlier this year, slamming them for encouraging political violence against ideological opponents.

What he said: In a Monday morning post on Truth Social, Trump cast Reiner" as "a tortured and struggling, but once very talented movie director and comedy star."

Reiner, Trump said, "passed away, together with his wife, Michele, reportedly due to the anger he caused others through his massive, unyielding, and incurable affliction with a mind crippling disease known as TRUMP DERANGEMENT SYNDROME, sometimes referred to as TDS."

"He was known to have driven people CRAZY by his raging obsession of President Donald J. Trump, with his obvious paranoia reaching new heights as the Trump Administration surpassed all goals and expectations of greatness ... perhaps like never before."

"May Rob and Michele rest in peace!"

Catch up quick: Reiner and his wife, Michele, were found dead this weekend, Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass confirmed in a Sunday evening post on X.

The LAPD is investigating the deaths at Reiner's home as a homicide and has the couple's son, Nick Reiner, in custody, according to police documents.

Rob Reiner directed American classics such as "The Princess Bride," "When Harry Met Sally" and "Stand by Me."

Zoom in: "This is a devastating loss for our city and our country," Bass said.

"Rob Reiner's contributions reverberate throughout American culture and society, and he has improved countless lives through his creative work and advocacy fighting for social and economic justice."

"An acclaimed actor, director, producer, writer, and engaged political activist, he always used his gifts in service of others."

Between the lines: Reiner was a persistent Trump critic, once calling him "mentally unfit" and "the single most unqualified human being to ever assume the presidency of the United States."

He also faulted the mainstream media for not holding the president "accountable," asserting that "major outlets" serve as "propaganda for an American president."

The intrigue: Trump's post came hours after conservative figures began to compare reactions to the Reiners' deaths to Kirk's murder in September, originally insisting that the right wouldn't cheer someone's homicide.

"You won't see people on the right celebrating the horrific murder of Rob Reiner and his wife," Turning Point USA activist Jack Posobiec posted on X Sunday evening.

"Compare to the Left's reaction to Charlie Kirk's murder."

Zoom out: Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, a Trump ally who's been increasingly breaking with the president in the past few months, condemned the president's reaction on X on Monday.

"Rob Reiner and his wife were tragically killed at the hands of their own son, who reportedly had drug addiction and other issues, and their remaining children are left in serious mourning and heartbreak. This is a family tragedy, not about politics or political enemies."

Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) also slammed the president in a X post on Monday, saying that "regardless of how you felt about Rob Reiner, this is inappropriate and disrespectful discourse about a man who was just brutally murdered. I guess my elected GOP colleagues, the VP, and White House staff will just ignore it because they're afraid? I challenge anyone to defend it."

The White House did not immediately respond to Axios' request for comment on Massie's statement.

As if we needed it, even more evidence of what a human piece of trash trump is. Or as some call it, just another day at The White House. Minus the East Wing of course.

HE IS A DISCUSTING HUMAN. Hey maga tell your kids to be like him so they can grow up to be president.

They expect better than that from their children but not their president.

There is no low that is beyond trump.
What a repulsive human being.

Least surprising comment of the day.

Any yet he is the President.

Good Grief...

We started getting All in the Family re-runs this fall on one of our oldies stations. They show two disclaimers even before the iconic opening theme song, lol, lest people get triggered.

Many people fail to understand that the Archie Bunker and Mike Stivic characters were meant to inspire healthy debate, and to poke fun at both the right and left. Same with the George Jefferson character.
Rob Reiner directed some great movies, too, but he’ll always be Meathead, to those of a certain age.

As for Trump, I’m not shocked he’d say something so classless. That’s how he operates: with zero class.

I didn't like the comment but it wasn't near a celebration. I didn't like the comments Reiner has made over the years but I liked his results. He directed some fine movies, so I can overlook his comments.

Talk is cheap, results speak. The President may say some irritating things, but he delivers results. That's all I care about.

I know most of the 10 of you disagree but I am not going to waste my time talking about it.

Yes he delivers results like hate, fear, divisiveness, carpeting the news with violent rhetoric, assaulting us citizens, pardoning thousands of criminals and major drug dealers, disillusionment, war crimes, rising deaths due to infectious diseases, destruction of government property, embarrassment on the world stage, rising costs, pummeling small businesses out of business with tariffs, economic uncertainty, threatening freedom of speech, making millions / billions for him and his family with political influence...... if thats what you care about those are his results.

Just for the sake of Contrast:

This is what Rob had to say about the murder of Charlie Kirk..

There is nothing that Trump says that makes much sense. He's a hateful Ass. Not getting around it.

But hey, you just go on defending a 34 time Convicted Felon. Be my guest.,.,,,

Minimizing these commenst about someone who was just murdered is all you have left in your bag of tricks. Disgusting.


Did he make those comments right after trump was murdered? Sometimes I don't think you even hear yourself. You know better and were raised better than this.



Irritating things? Is that what you call talking this way about someone who was just murdered? Really? You are dismissing the actual results he delivers on a daily basis. Hate and division within our own country. And there's the persistent lies he tells on a daily basis. But as you said, you only care about the results you care about. Because no matter what a POS human being he is getting what you want is all you care about.


Yet here you are talking about it and unknowingly making yourself look like a gullible fool in the process.

Trump ordered a hit on Rob and his wife and told them to make it look like his son did it.

That sounds more plausible than many of the right wing conspiracy theories we hear.

Exactly my point. But it will still be smacked about. If you know what I mean.

Trump continues to prove that he is the pettiest nastiest POTUS ever…. SHAME. SHAME SHAME.

WORST POTUS EVER, HANDS DOWN. Happy Holidays MAGA. Y’all grinched Christmas.

He just can't stop the nasty. It's all he knows..................................

'A deranged person': Trump doubles down on attacks against Rob Reiner

He is the clinical definition of a malignant narcissist.

Malignant narcissism is a severe personality type combining Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD) traits (grandiosity, entitlement) with antisocial behavior, sadism, and paranoia, making individuals cruel, exploitative, and lacking empathy,
