Former American First Lady Michelle Obama points out that she and her husband, the former Democratic President Barack Obama (2009-2017) they dated the filmmaker Rob Reiner and his wife the night the couple was murdered.
“We had known her for many, many years. We should see her that evening. Last night. And we got the message,” he said on the late-night show Jimmy Kimmel Live! on Monday.
The director and author of classics such as “Harry and Sally” (1989) was beheaded at his home in Los Angeles on Sunday along with his wife, photographer and producer Michele Reiner.
Their middle son Nick was arrested as a suspected suspect in the murder of his parents, whose bodies were found by the couple’s daughter Romy, according to the American press.
Michelle Obama pointed out that the Reiners They were among the “brave and most decent” people.
With this comment, he implicitly referred to the message of US President Donald Trump, who, in his memory of the filmmaker, attributed the crime to “the rage” that Reiner “invoked in others through his enormous, indomitable and incurable mind-paralyzing illness, known as Trump Derangement Syndrome.”
Trump’s comments about Reiner were not limited to his social network Truth Social. Later, speaking to reporters in the Oval Office of the White House, he reiterated that he was “not a fan at all” of the director, whom he considered “very bad” for the country and a “crazy” person.
“They are not angry. What they have always been, are passionate people in a time when there is not much courage. They were the kind of people who were willing to use their actions to support what was important to them: they cared about their family, their country, that’s the truth,” the former first lady concluded.
