Mr. Trump, please shut up...








 

by Craig Willms


There he goes again. Mr. Trump cannot seem to detect where his personal thoughts end and his presidential thoughts (should) begin. In the aftermath of the devastating murder of Rob Reiner and his wife at the hand of his own son, Mr. Trump opened his big mouth - again. 

There's a time and place for everything. In the event someone you personally dislike dies, it's not the time to air you personal grievances. Trump got on social media and pretended offer his condolences and then as he always does, made it about himself. He complained that Reiner, one of his biggest critics in Hollywood, had a bad case of Trump Derangement Syndrome. It was not untrue, but it was not the time to say it. What a jerk thing to do.

Many of us were shocked (well, not really) when Democrats and their uber-left brethren literally cheered when Charlie Kirk was assassinated. I'll even venture a guess that Rob Reiner was privately among them - since Charlie supported Trump. If he did, he held his tongue. Trump should have done the same. 

I was a fan of a lot of Rob Reiner's work, particularly his movies This is Spinal Tap and The Princess Bride. I was not a fan of his politics. So what, no one cares what I think about Rob Reiner's politics.

Godspeed Mr. and Mrs. Reiner, it's another sad day for the country, for the world.
