Donald Trump has doubled down on his attacks on Rob Reiner after the Hollywood star and his wife were apparently murdered.
The President appeared to blame Reiner and Michele's killings on the liberal director's 'Trump Derangement Syndrome' in a Monday post on Truth Social.
Hollywood celebrities and Republicans pushed back on his statement, with some calling it 'disgusting and vile.'
But the President seemed undeterred in his criticism of the late director.
When pressed by a reporter in the Oval Office about his previous statement, he said: 'Well, I wasn't a fan of his at all. He was a deranged person. As far as Trump was concerned.
'I think he hurt himself, career-wise, he became like a deranged person, [with] Trump derangement syndrome. So I was not a fan of Rob Reiner at all, in any way shape or form. I thought he was very bad for our country.'
Trump also accused Reiner of pushing the 'Russia hoax', the allegation that the President was compromised by the Kremlin during his first term.
He wrote that Reiner, a 'once very talented movie director and comedy star,' passed away, 'reportedly due to the anger he caused others through his massive, unyielding, and incurable affliction with a mind crippling disease' known as TDS - or Trump Derangement Syndrome. The term is used by conservatives to describe disdain for the Republican President.
Trump's post continued: '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.'
The vicious statement about the couple's death highlighted Trump's tendency to attack public figures following their passing. The Republican has also ridiculed the late Senator John McCain and General Colin Powell after they died.

Who cares, it’s trivial SB. And why post dailymail garbage in the first place?
Trump did say it and I think it’s hysterical.
Rob Reiner played Meathead in “All in the Family”—and often in 2020s social media!
But he also acted in this lovely movie:

It is very rarely wise to speak ill of the dead—except in the case of villains like Hitler, Stalin, and Mao! But. then the goal is to avoid repeating these villains’ evil! That obviously does not apply to Rob Reiner!
Trump needs to stop doing this.
><
I agree.
yes, but its also why Trump is successful.
He's fearless and not afraid to point out what many of us are thinking. You think you are fighting by Marquess of Queensbury Rules, while the Left is fighting Brazilian Vale Tudo
Was there at least an indirect causation and connection between Reiner's radical leftism, his behavior and ideology, and what happened to him by his own son's hand?
Sadly YES.
Glad I already have “All in the Family” on DVD cuz I’m sure they’ll be excising Archie’s “dead from the neck up” comment from all existing episodes…
“Trump needs to actually cut the taxes on my SS so I can boost up the accounts of my Grands to help them weather the future.”
Trump need congress to pass the bill.
OTOH, Trump is giving me a $12k deduction to mitigate my taxed SS.
There is no upside to posting this. Only downsides. Part of wisdom is knowing when you should preview and vet your posts before you post them. This only hurts the cause and makes things harder.
If you say Trump's comments will upset "independents" then I would say anyone "independent" with regards to Trump in the current political situation needs to pull his head out of his arse.
Your classless, trashy profanity has no place here.
Reiner is to blame for raising such a shitty child.
Reiner and the XiChiatrysts and BIG Pharma.
Indeed.
“It’s a bad look. I wish he wouldn’t do this.”
And with the media and Hollywood, has a good look from Trump ever mattered?
Does anyone ever condemn that red headed witch who constantly holds up a decapitated bloody Trump mannaquin?
And all the leftists who rejoiced loudly over Charlie Kirk’s murder?
These are not concerned about a bad look.
Agreed
It’s all true and that’s what really makes them mad.
Didn’t meathead call for Trump’s assassination? Don’t leftists do that every day? They attempted it twice. And they impeached him twice, calling him Hitler and a Nazi and a pedophile every day. Now a bunch weak kneed sob sisters are whining and crying.
Grow some cojones. Nothing he does can make the leftists hate him more. The whining RINOs aren’t going to go to the polls for him no matter what he says. At least he fights unlike the last couple of Repub Presidents. They sucked up to the Left and were still called Nazis.
Agreed. Silence is sufficient. It accomplishes nothing except feeding dissension.
“Reiner and his ilk would be dancing in the streets if Trump suffered something similar.”
Ok, so are you of that ilk too? Publically celebrating a double murder of parents by a mentally ill child? Or are you better than that?
