"I thought that statement was absolutely, completely below the office of the president of the United States. Classless. And it was just wrong. That was a it's a tragic murder. It's a family ripped apart. And from my understanding what I've seen on the news, it was drug abuse and mental illness. And many families across America deal with family members that are drug addicts or have mental health issues. And I think the president should've responded with compassion and talked about those issues."
"Even if you don't agree with Rob Reiner, politically, there was no reason for his statement."
"On Monday, the president accused Reiner, a liberal activist and Trump critic, of having Trump Derangement Syndrome and blamed him for his own murder."
Rob and Michele Singer Reiner were found stabbed to death in their Brentwood home, and their son Nick Reiner has been charged with first-degree murder. The president accused Rob Reiner of having ‘‘Trump Derangement Syndrome’’ and suggested Reiner bore blame for his own death, later calling him a deranged person. The president's comments drew widespread condemnation across the political spectrum. Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene called the president's response ‘‘below the office’’ and urged a compassionate focus on drug abuse and mental illness rather than politicizing a tragic family loss. Greene will resign next month after a fallout with the president over endorsements and policy disputes.
