Hollywood filmmaker and anti-Trump activist Rob Reiner has compared President Donald Trump to the late President Richard Nixon, claiming that there has been a cancer on the presidency for the last three years and that the sickness has spread throughout the country.
In a tweet on Wednesday, Rob Reiner cited former U.S. Attorney General and White House Counsel John Dean, who once said of President Nixon that there was a “cancer” on the presidency.
“For 3+ years, there’s been a cancer on this Presidency,” Reiner wrote, in an apparent reference to the Trump administration. “But this cancer has spread throughout America.”

He has also appeared to suggest that President Trump could be an accessory to murder.
“I’m not a lawyer, but it seems to me if you’re the most influential person in America and you tell the public that a deadly viral pandemic is a hoax & countless citizens accept that as reality, do nothing to protect themselves then end up dead, you might be an accessory,” Reiner tweeted in March.
