Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene is making headlines again after she publicly slammed President Trump’s response to the tragic killing of acclaimed actor and director Rob Reiner, calling the president’s statement “classless.” This isn’t just a minor disagreement, either. Greene, who used to be one of Trump’s fiercest allies, is suggesting that even the most loyal “MAGA faithful” are upset by the president’s handling of the sensitive situation.
The controversy started when Reiner and his wife, Michele Singer Reiner, were found stabbed to death in their Los Angeles home this past weekend. Their 32-year-old son, Nick Reiner, has since been charged with two counts of first-degree murder. Instead of focusing on the family tragedy, the president initially reacted by taking a political jab at the director, who was known for his advocacy for progressive causes and Democratic fundraising. The president stated that the prolific director had died of “Trump derangement syndrome,” a phrase he often uses to dismiss criticism from political opponents.
