In the post on Truth Social Monday morning, Trump wrote a "very sad thing happened" to Reiner and his wife, but went on to say that it was "reportedly due to the anger he caused others through his massive, unyielding, and incurable affliction with a mind crippling disease known as TRUMP DERANGEMENT SYNDROME, sometimes referred to as TDS." "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, and with the Golden Age of America upon us, perhaps like never before. May Rob and MIchele rest in peace!," the post continues. The statement turns what appears to be a homicide into something political, when there's no indication it is.

Reiner and his wife, were found dead in their home on Chadbourne Avenue, with the couple "suffering lacerations consistent with a knife," law enforcement sources told TMZ. There reportedly was no sign of forced entry. Reiner, the director of When Harry Met Sally, Princess Bride and Stand By Me, among others was also prominent supporter of the Democratic party as well as an activist in his own right, having co-founded the American Foundation for Equal Rights, which helped overturn Proposition 8, the 2008 ballot measure that banned same-sex marriage. He also led the campaign to pass Proposition 10, the California Children and Families Initiative, which created a program of early childhood development services. After its passage, he was named the chair of the California Children and Families Commission.
