A person can can either be part of the problem or part of the solution
When someone is alive, fine - tell them they are not a good guy. Maybe they can change. But when dead? STFU
saying crass things about someone that just died puts you in the part of the problem category.
It would of cost nothing, and even scored some political capital by Trump - simply by choosing to not be an ass

Thanks for your reply...
Stay on the topic. Use your own words.
He says what he believes...don't you? Or do you say things to score points? Like so many others do? I wouldn't have posted that...I would have said nothing... But either choice should not be a problem....if you don't like it say so...and move on...

Michelle Obama pushes back on Trump’s Rob Reiner comments
“Let me just say this, unlike some people: Rob and Michele Reiner are some of the most decent, courageous people you ever want to know,” she told Kimmel. “They’re not deranged or crazed. What they have always been are passionate people. In a time when there’s not a lot of courage going on, they were the kind of people who were ready to put their actions behind what they cared about. And they cared about their family. And they cared about this country.”

What they have always been are passionate people. In a time when there’s not a lot of courage going on, they were the kind of people who were ready to put their actions behind what they cared about. And they cared about their family. And they cared about this country.”
Police are currently investigating the Reiners’ deaths as an “apparent homicide,” and authorities announced Monday that Reiner’s son, Nick Reiner, is in custody as a suspect. He has been booked on murder charges and is being held on $4 million bail.
The son of legendary comedian Carl Reiner, Rob Reiner was a strong supporter of progressive causes, including LGTBQ+ rights and early childhood education, and often held fundraisers and campaigned for Democratic issues. He was also a frequent critic of Trump’s.
In a Monday morning post to Truth Social, Trump said Reiner was “a tortured and struggling, but once very talented movie director and comedy star, has passed away, together with his wife, Michele, 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.”
Despite sharp backlash from Democrats and Republicans alike, Trump doubled down on his comments during a medal presentation Monday afternoon, telling reporters in the Oval Office that he wasn’t a fan of Reiner’s “at all.”
“He was a deranged person as far as Trump is concerned,” Trump said.

"Rob Reiner is dead. So is his wife. It was violent. It was ugly. And it’s tragic in the technical sense of the word. But let’s not do the dishonest thing where we pretend this man suddenly deserves reverence because he’s gone.
No tears will be lost here.
For decades, Reiner made a career out of sneering at half the country, smearing anyone who disagreed with him as stupid, evil, or dangerous. He didn’t just criticize policies, he dehumanized people. He mocked them. He wished ruin on them. And he did it loudly, smugly, and without apology.
Now that he’s gone, the same people who cheered that behavior want silence, grace, and decorum. They want critics to suddenly discover compassion they were never allowed to have themselves. Funny how that works.
This isn’t celebration. It’s accounting.
A person’s death doesn’t erase the damage they spent a lifetime doing. It doesn’t magically convert cruelty into courage or arrogance into virtue. Legacy isn’t written at the moment of death, it’s written in the years before it. And Rob Reiner’s public life deserves to be remembered exactly as it was, divisive, contemptuous, and fueled by an open hatred for people he considered beneath him. No canonization. No forced mourning.
Just the truth, plain, uncomfortable, and earned. One less Meathead....
The world doesn't need to stop every time a celebrity dies. That's a clear sign we're living in a cultural circus overrun with clowns who are as easily distracted as a dog by tossing his toy..... Michael Bitter. Everyone has a right to their opinion...

"A father and mother were murdered at the hands of their troubled son," Rep. Stephanie Bice, R-Oklahoma, wrote in a social media response. "We should be lifting the family up in prayer, not making this about politics."
Many Democrats also reacted strongly to Trump's statement.
"Rob Reiner was a beloved Californian who always used his platform to make the world better," Rep. Zoe Lofgren, D-California, wrote on social media. "Donald Trump making light of him and his wife’s murders is a new low for this petty, hateful man."
