He gives them permission to be the worst of inhumanity and proves that the worst beta male, full of grievances and incompetence wrapped up in a toddler tantrum, can become the bully president.

Trump is a weak man. Even in the most powerful position in the world, he still throws tantrums when he feels threatened.
That’s why he dodged the draft. He knew the army was one place where his money and privilege wouldn’t protect him.

Regarding Reiner, I have known a lot of musicians and been in bands myself. I can’t overstate the importance of This Is Spinal Tap in adjusting the self-importance of musicians. Everyone knows the movie, everyone has identified Spinal Tap moments, everyone is humbler and funnier as a result.

Over six years ago, I published an 11,000 word article in The Atlantic (gift link below) explaining how Donald Trump was, beyond any question, mentally ill and unfit to hold any office of public trust.

He has proven these points virtually every day since.

The timing of this post and the reference to the murders being "due to the anger ... caused others through … TDS" suggests strongly that Trump believed that **one or more of his supporters** had committed the murders—and that they had committed the atrocity **justifiably**.

The American state media went from attacking President Biden’s age endlessly and never once acknowledging the countless good things he was trying to do to now trying to somehow normalize the orange felon mocking/condoning someone’s murder. It’s grotesque.

I know I've been beating this drum for over seven years now, but Donald Trump is a very and truly sick man who should be in a mental or penal institution and certainly not the White House.

Despicable.

Only months after Kirk's assassination, when we are all reaffirming our commitments to non-violence and free speech, Trump posts that the murder of Rob Reiner and his wife are really Rob's own fault. Basically saying "That's what happens when you make people mad for criticizing me."
