      Its not that its a horrible thing to say, its that even the his base are like “um, wut? Does having TDS mean that someone is going to kill you? Is he suggesting I kill my parents if they dont like him?” Its literally demented. He’s coming across like he’s yelling at the clouds.

        They don’t seem to understand that trump is psychologically unfit, it’s not just him having fun.

        ”Malignant narcissism is a severe personality construct combining Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD) with antisocial traits, paranoia, and sadism, creating a destructive pattern of grandiosity, extreme entitlement, lack of empathy, manipulation, and a desire to harm others for personal gain.”

    “Rob Reiner was a very liberal Democrat who had very strong criticism of President Trump,” Kurtz said. “And yet, I have to say,  that for the president of the United States to take this family tragedy in which both Reiner and his wife were killed and say that it’s because of ‘Trump Derangement Syndrome,’ I thought was well beneath him and beneath the office. And I think it would have been better if the president had made no comment.”

    What dank hole do these people crawl out of? Where has Howard Kurtz been since 2015 that this is surprising to him?

    Sounds like he should be fired from his pretend reporter role since he’s apparently missed out on the last 10 years of news.

        MAGAs aren’t really political conservatives. Political conservatives are people like Biden, Pelosi and Schumer. MAGAs are cultist domestic terrorists.

    They are ok with the racism, the fascism, the numerous sexual assault and rape cases, the rape conviction, the being a russian stooge thing, the insurrection, being Epsteins friend before and after he was convicted of being a paedo, the stealing of top secret documents, the six bankruptcies and numerous failed businesses plus numerous fines for being corrupt etc, the 34 felony convictions etc etc etc and so on but, BUT being a cunt about an actor and director is beneath the office?

    How about, fuck you.

    Everything that comes out of his mouth is beneath the office.

    When he says something awful like this, though, I figure there is probably another story that he’s trying to bury with manufactured outrage. I suspect Fox is on board and is with amplifying the non-news item to bury the real news item.

    In the good timeline, the headline is

    Fox News Panel Unanimously Condemns Trump,

    it’s from 2015, and it’s the last headline about him before he abandons his presidential ambitions and then dies from colon cancer, penniless and with his obituary being only an “in other news” on talk radio.

    To condemn him would have been to say something like

    “What Trump said was beyond disgusting and is another example of him acting the way you would expect a toddler to act. Anyone who supports him after this has something wrong with them”

    And they should have said this right after the footage of him saying he would like to grab young girls by the pussy or when he did an impression of someone with a learning disability on stage.

    Too little, too late.

      or when he did an impression of someone with a learning disability on stage.

      I’m almost willing to give him a pass on this one since he’s got inside knowledge on what it’s like to be someone with a learning disability.

    They don’t actually care. If this hadn’t happened so close to Kirk’s death they’d all be varying degrees of “who cares” to “yeah fuck Rob Reiner.”

    A lot of them on Twitter are just like “fuck Rob Reiner” anyway. But yeah this celebrity death cycle with libs and cons shaming each other based on reactions is dumb as fuck.

      I thought so little of them (fox at least) that I assumed they would have disregarded the proximity to kirks death and went along with it anyway. wouldnt be the first time they sanewash/downplay trump anyway.

    Let’s apply the Kimmel rule. Trump should have his presidency cancelled for the horrendous shit he spewed about another’s death. If usa ever survives this they should put rules in place so this never happens again. If the rules are already in place then maybe america deserves all of this because they won’t even defend themselves from the known enemy within.
