Trump Derangement Syndrome: Family Wanted Woman’s Obituary to Include Line Partially Blaming Trump for Her Death

By Townhall. An 87-year-old diehard Democrat, Frances Irene Finley Williams, in Kentucky passed away the day before November. And the family says President Donald Trump had a large part to do with it. In fact, Williams told her daughter in early 2018 that, “If I die soon, all this Trump stuff has had an effect.”

When Williams passed, her family decided to make a rather strange move: they added a line in her obituary to place partial blame on Trump for the woman’s death, the Courier Journal reported.

“Her passing was hastened by her continued frustration with the Trump administration.”

The obituary with the line was submitted to a local paper by the Cremation Society of Kentucky, which handled Williams’ arrangements.

An email from a Gannett office in Wisconsin that handles obituaries said, “we are not able to publish the obituary as is, due to the negative content within the obituary text.”

The family dutifully struck the sentence about Trump from the obit. Family members and friends attended the visitation and memorial service — none of them wearing blue jeans, shorts, flip-flops or tennis shoes.
