President Donald Trump on Monday defended a controversial social media post he made following the death of actor and director Rob Reiner, doubling down on his criticism while acknowledging he had never been a supporter of the outspoken Hollywood figure.
Trump’s remarks came after reporters questioned him about a Truth Social post in which he said Reiner suffered from what he described as “Trump Derangement Syndrome.” The post followed news that Reiner and his wife, Michele, were found dead inside their Brentwood, California, home.
