Donald Trump ignited outrage Monday after turning a brief condolence for the deaths of actor-director Rob Reiner and his wife, Michele Singer, into a vicious Truth Social attack blaming Reiner’s passing on “Trump Derangement Syndrome,” a move that stunned observers and alienated even loyal fans. Within hours of the couple being found dead in their Los Angeles home, Trump mocked Reiner as “tortured” and obsessed with him, prompting a wave of criticism from supporters who called the post “heartless,” “tacky,” and “insane,” with many urging the president to delete it and warning that his cruelty was doing political damage.
