JAKARTA - US President Donald Trump has angered Hollywood celebrities. This is due to his upload related to director Rob Reiner who died on Sunday, December 14.
Reiner and his wife, Michele, were found dead at their home in Brentwood, Los Angeles. Shortly after the news broke, Trump tweeted that his death was due to Reiner's dislike of him.
"A very sad thing happened last night in Hollywood. Rob Reiner, tormented and troubled but once a very talented comedy star and director, died with his wife, Michele, because of the anger he caused others through his severe, incurable and unbearable mental illness known as Trump's Disorder Syndrome, sometimes referred to as TDS," wrote Donald Trump through a social media account on Monday, December 15.
Then, he praised his own achievements and said Reiner's resentment towards him was the cause of his own death. He also spoke in front of the public at the White House about his tweet.
"I'm not a fan of him at all, he's a nutcase. He knows it's fake news, but he's said I'm a Russian friend, Russian controlled, Russian hoax, he's one of them. I think he's hurting his own career, he's a crazy person," Trump said, quoted by The Guardian.
Several Hollywood actors and politicians have expressed their dismay at Donald Trump's comments about Rob Reiner.
"Disgusting and vile statement," wrote actor Patrick Schwarzenegger.
Whoopi Goldberg, who is a good friend of Reiner, wrote, "I don't understand the man in the White House. He talks a lot about Charlie Kirk and about caring and about (Rob Reiner), he talks like that. No shame? At all? Can it be lower than this? I think not. "
"What we need in times like these is leadership, not just common sense, not just health and gun safety, but leadership," said host Jimmy Kimmel. "We're not getting that from our president, not because he doesn't have it. Instead of talking about the origin, we take the time to reflect on our friends in Australia, for those in Brown and for Rob and Michele Reiner."
During his life, Rob Reiner is known to have voiced his views and criticism of Donald Trump. Reiner's wife, Michele, also served as a photographer for one of Trump's books.
