Trump blames Director Rob Reiner’s killing on his ‘paranoia’ and ‘Trump Derangement Syndrome’
Trump urged to delete ‘dreadful’ post about Rob Reiner’s death
- President Donald Trump has been urged to delete a post about director Rob Reiner’s death after blaming it on “Trump Derangement Syndrome.”
- Reiner and his wife, Michele, were found stabbed to death in their Los Angeles home this weekend and their son Nick Reiner, 32, has been arrested on suspicion of murder.
- Trump took to Truth Social Monday morning, calling Rob Reiner “tortured and struggling,” claiming he and his wife passed away, “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.”
- The president claimed Reiner was known to have “driven people crazy by his raging obsession of President Donald J. Trump.”
- The post quickly led to backlash, with TV presenter Piers Morgan writing, “This is a dreadful thing to say about a man who just got murdered ... Delete it, Mr President.”
