DID ROB REINER HAVE WORST CASE OF TDS EVER?

In the wake of Donald Trump's 2024 presidential election victory on November 5, Rob Reiner experienced a public meltdown on the social media platform Bluesky, where he had migrated after leaving X (formerly Twitter). The 77-year-old actor and director posted increasingly distressed messages, declaring that "America has fallen" due to electing a "fascist" like Trump, criticizing Republicans for not understanding the consequences, and lamenting that Bluesky had become "vile, racist, and evil" overrun by "MAGA scum" spreading lies and hate.

 

On November 20, 2024, Reiner announced he was checking into a facility for "peace and relaxation," stating he would avoid phones, social media, and trolls to "heal my pain." Reports framed this as a response to his escalating paranoia and emotional distress over the election, though it's unclear if it was a mental health institution or simply a retreat. Reiner has been silent online since, with no further updates on his condition.
