Robert De Niro Dumps On Trump Again, Compares His Presidency To A 'Nightmare'


Robert De Niro Dumps On Trump Again, Compares His Presidency To A 'Nightmare'

Robert De Niro unloaded on President Donald Trump — again — on CNN on Monday, comparing him to a “nightmare.”

“We’ve seen horrible things over the years, but this is one of the worst that I have ever seen,” De Niro told news host Hala Gorani, referring to the Trump presidency.


New Yorker De Niro called Trump a “New Yorker who I never would want to meet” because “I know what kind of a person this guy is.” And “now he’s president,” added the actor.

It’s “disgraceful,” De Niro said. “But we’ll get past it. It’ll be one of those things ... like a nightmare that you remember.”

De Niro also called Trump’s tweeted “retorts” about him “inane” and “stupid.”

De Niro, who has called Trump a “scumbag,” a “pig” and a “mutt,” has appeared on “Saturday Night Live” as Robert Mueller, who’s investigating possible collusion with the Kremlin on interference in the 2016 presidential election.

In June, De Niro strode on stage at the Tony Awards and immediately declared: “Fuck Trump” — twice — which elicited a standing ovation.

“Fuck Trump,” he said. “It’s no longer ‘Down with Trump,’ it’s fuck Trump.”

And ended up making his stupid ass tweet about courts looking in to SNL on Sunday morning. That's my take on it anyway.

That he can’t wake up from. He also knows it’s just going to get worse as his enabler, Ryan gets replaced with Pelosi next month.

when Tom Cruise switched hands and started running balls on the pool table and said to his opponent about it being like a nightmare that won't go away. I botched it but some people will get my drift.

then certainly Trump is also a traitor. Screw the legal definition of treason, Trump is a dictionary definition of a traitor.
