Facts Matter: Rob Reiner Condemned the Murder of Charlie Kirk and Praised His Widow

Facts Matter: Rob Reiner Condemned the Murder of Charlie Kirk and Praised His Widow

#TuckFrump (@realtuckfrumper.bsky.social) 2025-12-15T21:45:18.000Z


MAGA are attacking Rob Reiner to justify Donald Trump’s anti-presidential comments about the beloved filmmaker after his murder, but Reiner condemned the murder of Charlie Kirk.

Donald Trump is so unfit for the position he holds that even in the face of horrific tragedy, he inserts himself and his own rabid hatred. In the wake of Rob Reiner and his wife’s horrific murders, Trump used their murder to appease his own insecurities with a rant so unpresidential that is beggars belief how anyone can support him.

The right is attacking Reiner in order to justify Trump’s attacks, but here is Reiner on an episode of Piers Morgan Uncensored, condemning the murder of Charlie Kirk and praising his widow.

Reiner replied, “Horror. Absolute horror. I unfortunately saw the video of it and it’s beyond belief, what happened to him. That should never happen to anybody. I don’t care what your political beliefs are, that’s not acceptable. That’s not a solution to solving problems. And I felt like what his wife said at the service was exactly right. I’m Jewish, but I believe in the teachings of Jesus and I believe in do unto others and I believe in forgiveness. What she said was beautiful. She forgave his assassin and I think that is admirable.”

asked her whether she included Dear Leader as contributing and being responsible for the hate speech, incitement, devisiveness, and violence she totally excluded him in her reply - blaming families for needing to parent better and "everybody" being responsible, and ferociously/viciously screwing up her face with "I'm doing MY part!"

*** I call her and all Wingnut women "Mrs" or Miss because "Ms" is for empowering women.
