The late Hollywood director and his wife were found dead in their Brentwood home on Sunday, December 14, and Trump\u2019s controversial remarks about the tragedy sparked immediate backlash.<\/p>\n<p>During Monday night\u2019s\u00a0<em>Jimmy Kimmel Live!<\/em>, Kimmel didn\u2019t hold back. He criticized Trump for calling Reiner\u2019s death the result of \u201cTrump Derangement Syndrome,\u201d calling the comments \u201chateful and vile.\u201d Reading Trump\u2019s Monday morning Truth Social post aloud, Kimmel highlighted the former president\u2019s words suggesting that Reiner\u2019s anger toward Trump somehow contributed to his passing.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s so hateful,\u201d Kimmel said. \u201cWhen I first saw it, I thought it was fake. But nothing is ever too much for him.\u201d He added pointedly, \u201cThat corroded brain is in charge of our lives.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"autors-widget\">\n<div>\n<div>\n<p>Trump doubled down during a press briefing, repeating his claim that Reiner was \u201cderanged\u201d and critical of him, linking the director to false Russia allegations. Kimmel fired back, urging viewers to \u201ckeep pointing out the loathsome atrocities\u201d and emphasizing Reiner would have wanted people to hold Trump accountable.<\/p>\n<div class=\"google-auto-placed ap_container\">\n<p>Other late-night hosts, like Stephen Colbert, took a more solemn approach, acknowledging Reiner\u2019s death alongside other tragic events without diving into political attacks.<\/p>\n<p>The Reiner family tragedy stems from a family dispute. Sources told TMZ that Rob, Michele, and their son Nick argued loudly at Conan O\u2019Brien\u2019s Christmas party Saturday night. The following day, the couple was discovered dead in their Brentwood home, reportedly from stab wounds. Rob was 78, Michele 68.<\/p>\n<div class=\"autors-widget\">\n<div>\n<div>\n<p>Their son, Nick Reiner, 32, has been arrested on suspicion of murder and is being held without bail.
