The disgusting comments made by King Trump following the murders of Rob Reiner and his wife should surprise no one. Though many politicians from both sides of the isle have expressed outrage, Trump was surely pleased by the explosive attention that he received.
A supreme narcissist is incapable of empathy and wants nothing more than to shift the discussion away from his perceived enemies and back onto himself. Indeed, he even referred to Reiner's liberalism as "Trump Derangement Syndrome."
Trump has and will disparage anyone who openly criticizes his behavior and policies. In an attempt to boost his self esteem and regain the attention that he "knows he deserves," our King will "throw anyone under the bus," including members of his staff and family. While Trump's outrageous comments must be openly deplored, the widespread reaction that they inflamed will only fuel similar behavior in the future.
