Trump Blames 'Trump Derangement Syndrome' for Murdered Rob Reiners, GOP Cringe Ensues
KEY POINTS
- â˘President Trump posted on Truth Social blaming the deaths of Rob and Michele Reiner on 'TRUMP DERANGEMENT SYNDROME.'
- â˘The Reiners were stabbed to death by their son Nick, who police have arrested in connection with the killings.
- â˘Republican representatives including Don Bacon, Mike Lawler, and Stephanie Bice condemned Trump's statements and called for compassion.
In a headline so subtle it rivals a toddler brandishing a crayon, President Trump claimed the late director Rob Reiner and his wife Michele were killed due to 'TRUMP DERANGEMENT SYNDROME.' The Reiners â yes, the couple tragically stabbed to death by their son Nick â became pawns in Trumpâs latest Truth Social rant blaming Reinerâs 'raging obsession' with the president for sparking homicidal wrath. This rare GOP House spasm saw moderates like Rep. Don Bacon call Trumpâs remarks 'not Presidential,' while swing-district Rep. Mike Lawler pleaded for basic human decency. Even Marjorie Taylor Greene took a break from conspiracy world to say this was 'a family tragedy, not about politics,' while Rep. Thomas Massie dared GOP silence warriors to defend Trumpâs tasteless meltdown.
