Soledad O’Brien stopped by “TMZ Live” Monday, still reeling from the loss of her collaborator Rob Reiner and his wife Michele … and Soledad had some choice words for Donald Trump‘s disparaging post about the late actor-director.
Soledad got to know Rob well while co-hosting the 10-part true-crime podcast series, “Who Killed JFK?”
She tells TMZ, Rob was kind to everyone … “The person who was taking in the audio, the person who was shooting, the person who was producing, the person who was helping the person who was producing, the assistants … absolutely the kindest human being.”
In fact, Soledad described Rob and his wife as “two really wonderful, kind people,” making their gruesome deaths all the more heartbreaking.
“It’s so horrific,” Soledad said. “I honestly cannot believe it.”

POTUS took the opportunity to make it about himself, claiming Rob died “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, sometimes referred to as TDS.”

Soledad called Trump’s response “pathetic, but not surprising.”
But instead of dwelling on Trump’s nastiness, the veteran journalist urged people to remember what kind and talented people Rob and Michele were … and not to waste time with anything ugly that anybody says about them.
