It would be hard to find a decent conservative who liked Rob Reiner’s politics — it will be impossible to find a decent conservative celebrating his death.
Reiner, 78, was found stabbed to death with his wife, Michele Singer, in the couple’s Hollywood home on Sunday. Their middle child, Nick Reiner, is reportedly a suspect in their killing.
And the reaction across the political spectrum — compared to the September assassination of conservative leader Charlie Kirk — speaks volumes about American politics.
To the everlasting disgrace of the American left, Kirk’s killing was cause for celebration among his political opponents.
Reiner, however, an inveterate liberal even by Hollywood standards, had a different take. And in an October interview with “Piers Morgan Uncensored,” he showed what a difference decency can make.
I didn’t often agree with Rob Reiner’s politics but he was a brilliant man, with a good heart.
This was his beautiful reaction to Charlie Kirk’s assassination on @piersmorgan only two months ago.
