Hollywood Is Unhappy With Trump’s ‘Disgusting’ Comments to Rob Reiner

by

Following the deaths of director Rob Reiner and his wife, Michele, President Trump posted a lengthy message on his social media platform, Truth Social, claiming Reiner had a deep-seated obsession with him. He described Reiner as someone struggling with what he called “TRUMP DERANGEMENT SYNDROME,” suggesting it was the cause of his anger. The post quickly spread to other platforms like X and Instagram, prompting a strong reaction from many celebrities. Jack White, a vocal critic of Trump, shared the post and strongly condemned it, calling Trump “disgusting” and accusing him of using Reiner’s death to promote his own agenda. White described the post as a “corrupt and narcissistic sin” and expressed shame towards Trump and anyone who defended it.

Journalist Maria Shriver, who was previously married to California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger, strongly condemned Donald Trump’s comments, calling them “absolutely disgusting.” She urged people not to overlook his words, emphasizing that his statement regarding Rob and Michele Reiner – a couple she described as kind and loving – was inhumane and deeply upsetting. Shriver questioned how anyone, let alone a president, could make such a statement, given the immense pain the Reiner family is experiencing.

Here are the complete statements from White and Shriver, along with reactions from other celebrities who were critical of Trump’s remarks.

Jack White

In a direct and forceful statement, White defended Rob Reiner. Although they had never met, White explained that Reiner’s work had affected him deeply, prompting him to speak out against Trump. He wrote a message of support, saying, “Bless you, Rob Reiner, and thank you for your contributions. Even though I’ve never met you, I fully support you.”

Maria Shriver

Maria Shriver, a longtime friend of the Reiner family, was shocked by a recent message from Donald Trump on Truth Social. She used the opportunity to ask people to offer the Reiners support and understanding, rather than criticism. Shriver emphasized that Rob and Michele Reiner were loving and dedicated parents who always prioritized their children’s well-being. She urged people to avoid judgment, political commentary, or spreading rumors, and instead focus on empathy and kindness, stating that even if the president can’t show compassion, individuals still can.

Patrick Schwarzenegger

Shriver’s son, Patrick, followed his mother’s statement with one of his own, echoing his disgust.

Josh Gad

Gad responded to a message shared by Trump on Instagram Threads, criticizing it as shockingly low, even for Trump’s standards. He wrote that Trump has no moral bottom and praised Rob Reiner as a far better person who genuinely cared about Americans. Gad ended with a scathing remark, suggesting Trump is only good at destructive acts and indulging in luxury.
