What Trump said about Rob Reiner's death

Post by DavidGee24 » Wed Dec 17, 2025 7:23 pm

So even though Reiner had about the worst TDS of any Hollywood celebrity, he was by all accounts a good man and in my personal opinion an outstanding filmmaker, and you can't even begin to defend what Trump said about his death. He and his wife get stabbed to death by their son and Trump just immediately blurts out that he was killed because of his TDS. What the fuck. Doesn't even wait for details and makes it all about himself.

This is just embarrassing, and I don't know what's sadder, that we have to settle on having an egomaniacal President who says stupid shit like this, or that the Democratic and Republican parties are so awful that they can't come up with a better person to put in the White House.

I voted three times for Trump and would do it over again as it's about who I think can do the job the best and not who pretends to be the nicest person. However, while I admire certain things about Trump like his tenacity, I wouldn't want to have dinner with or watch a game with the guy and I think he's really starting to mentally deteriorate. This shit is just inexcusable.

Also, Charlie Kirk has nothing to do with this.

What did he say? ALso, pretty sure Reiner was calling Trump "Hitler" - so Reiner gets exactly what he gave as far as a response. YOu can't say that shit, and then play the "OMG I'm a victim" card when the tables are turned. That is so literally the entire dem playbook. Not justifying whatever Trump said, but turnabout is fair play. Can't have it both ways.

I don't know what's happend to Trump, but he is losing support fast. I'm having a hard time understanding WTF he is doing - it's like invasion of the body snatchers - completely different dude from his first term - that's the dude I voted for - and the worst part is Kamala and the Dems are literally worse - they just get supported by the media to cover thier insane incompetence and grifting. My God look at the latest grift in Minnesota - utterly jaw dropping. Where is the outrage in Minnesota? "Fentanyl" is a terrorist entity - I mean literally what the fuck? Trump doesn't believe that for am minute - it has to be part of some invasion strategy they are rolling out - I voted for peace not war - so who is pushing war on him? Probably fucking Israel like always.

Here in Cal our utterly moronic gov and his insane policies are driving out Shell and Chevron - they are closing refineries and moving to Texas - because this state's policies are so fucked up you cannot do business here - gas on my corner is $4.75 - and it's about to explode.

I don't know how things have gotten so bad - it's almost like this is all by design. No one could do this shit and not consider and/or understand the incoming reactions and consequences - right? RIGHT? Businesses are leaving in droves - which means another tax increase is coming - and I hear WA is about to nail y'all with an income tax

I couldn't stand Reiner but you have to admit he was literal a victim a couple days ago. Some times I regret not having two legged kids but guessing he regretted having kids during his final moments on earth.

Sounded like we he was too soft on his son with regard to the drug problems and was as much an enabler as anything. Perhaps the son resented that.

I used to read Reiner's X account and believe me, I know all about his TDS. Trump didn't have to "honor" him, but what he said was more stupid than anything Reiner ever said, and that's saying a lot. Either Trump shouldn't have said anything, or at least waited to find out happened and said "You know what, I didn't like that guy, but that's terrible". The POTUS should not say the shit Trump says, and he's a reflection of our society in general which is not at all a good thing.

People are what people are. If Nick's brain is totally fucked up, there's nothing that anyone can do about it. I think they tried really hard to get him fixed but the demons in there were eventually going to win as they usually do. Kind of like Jerry Remy's son. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jared_Remy

The saddest part for me in all this is how far it has all fallen. Politics... where you talk trash all day long, solve NOTHING and still have a job.

Sounds like The View.

I'm not defending Trump on this one at all, and think his post was tasteless and totally out of line.

HOWEVER, having said that, the same people that danced on Charlie Kirk's grave, made joyful TikTok videos and were genuinely happy when Kirk was assassinated are the same people so offended by Trump's post. Do they even understand what total hypocrites they are?

You can’t possibly believe the American people are going to elect Vance after this train wreck.

Even Kamala was close to winning after how poorly Biden polled, Biden’s health debacle, the late entrance into the race, a woman, black…

There is nothing good associated with the current administration. They are a lost, sinking ship and it’s been one year.

Trump is ruining the Republican Party. MAGA or anything associated with it is simply going to be rejected due to Trump bombing.

This is why I added "Charlie Kirk has nothing to do with this". Really, what percentage of people were like that? Plus I have a personal thing about whaddaboutisms, to me it's a deflection that excuses one from personal accountability.
