Trump Posts About the Passing of Jerry Lee Lewis, But Is SILENT Over What Happened to Paul Pelosi

Singer and pianist Jerry Lee Lewis, the hell-raising rock ‘n’ roll pioneer and later a country star, has died, according to his rep, Zach Farnum. He was 87.

His death had erroneously been reported by some outlets on Wednesday. TMZ had reported that Lewis had passed, and other outlets quickly followed, as TMZ is usually accurate when it comes to celebrities. But they were off by a few days.

“Judith, his seventh wife, was by his side when he passed away at his home in Desoto County, Mississippi, south of Memphis,” Farnum’s statement said. “He told her, in his final days, that he welcomed the hereafter, and that he was not afraid.”

Of course the “Great Balls of Fire” singer was also known for his marriage to Myra Gale Brown, his first cousin once removed and the daughter of Lewis’ bassist. She was 13 at the time. Lewis was 22. Which, ew. Which is probably why Trump liked him and posted a message about his passing.

Trump wrote, “Jerry Lee Lewis was beloved by everyone, a real bundle of talent, energy, and everything else necessary to be a star. He just passed away. Our warmest regards to his wife, Judith, and family. He will be missed!”

But there has not been one peep out of Trump about Paul Pelosi, the husband of Nancy Pelosi who was attacked in his San Francisco home early Friday morning. Last we heard Paul Pelosi was in brain surgery, but is expected to make a full recovery.

And Trump couldn’t even send a “best wishes” post? His ridiculous and complicit wife couldn’t send a quick tweet? Of course not. Total silence. Which is the message. Not only does Trump not care, he’s probably loving this.

We all know why Trump isn’t saying anything. Take a look at what people are saying:
