POTUS, Donald Trump's post about Rob Reiner and Michele Reiner's death sparks criticism 

Condolences from around the world are pouring in for Rob and Michele's departed souls. He was the creative mind behind the cult-classic comfort movies of the '80s and '90s, such as The Princess Bride, When Harry Met Sally, and more. While Michele was a photographer whose love story with Rob influenced him while directing the iconic film, When Harry Met Sally.

"Rob Reiner, a tortured and struggling, but once very talented movie director and comedy star, has passed away, together with his wife, Michele, reportedly due to the anger he caused others through his massive, unyielding, and incurable affliction with a mind crippling disease known as TRUMP DERANGEMENT SYNDROME."

Rest in peace, Rob Reiner and Michele Reiner.
