Gracie Abrams has hit out at US President Donald Trump over his "poisonous and narcissism" amid the recent tragedies which occurred across the world.
Abrams took to Instagram to speak about such tragedies, including the mass shootings in Bondi Beach, Australia and Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island, as well as referring to the tragic deaths of director Rob Reiner and his wife Michele.
Yesterday, the singer shared a photo of a candle, writing: “I am beyond heartbroken for the victims at Bondi. Devastated for their families during the holiday, a time meant for gathering and for light. I feel sick inside for the victims and for the community at Brown. Students on their campus. What are we talking about?”.
“The conditions in Gaza are beyond the pale,” she continued, mentioning the ongoing “Earthshattering pain. The tarps the Palestinian people are living under are being whipped by the wind and the rain through the mud. Total desecration".
Elsewhere, Gracie Abrams also took aim at US President Donald Trump over his comments regarding the deaths of Rob Reiner and his wife Michele.
US President Donald Trump has received huge backlash over his social media post in the wake of Reiner's death.
After hearing the news, Trump claimed on his Truth Social platform that there was a link between the director's death and his criticism of the Trump Administration.
“Rob Reiner, a tortured and struggling, but once very talented movie director and comedy star, has passed away, together with his wife, Michele, 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", Trump wrote.
Reacting to this, Gracie Abrams said: “Within 24 hours of the most unimaginable tragedy a family can endure, we see the President yet again reveal the most poisonous and vile narcissism maybe in the history of humanity. Indefensible".
“It is getting harder to find the words to describe the pain in the world,” she added. “I am lighting a candle for everybody who is hurting".
Trump's post has been widely criticised by household names, including US talkshow host Jimmy Kimmel, a long time critic of Trump, who said: “Just when you think he can’t go any lower, he somehow finds a way to do that", while musician Jack White called the president a “disgusting, vile, egomaniac loser, child".
