Donald Trump Responds to Robert DeNiro's Criticisms: 'He's Not the Brightest Bulb'

Donald Trump slammed Robert DeNiro Monday, following the Oscar-winner’s criticisms of him this weekend, telling Fox News that the actor is “not the brightest bulb on the planet.”

“I like his acting, but in terms of when I watch him doing interviews and various other things, we’re not dealing with Albert Einstein,” Trump told “Fox & Friends” Monday.

“He can say what he wants but the fact is that this guy has not revealed his birth certificate, a lot of people agree with me.”

DeNiro is among a growing number of Hollywood stars who have criticized Trump for his comments, including comedian Jerry Seinfeld.

I wish Trump would also emphasize the other records that Obama is hiding.

De Niro - that’s the leftist propagandist who played a serial killer evangelical christian, and when he killed his victims, told them “are you ready to speak in tongues”.

Leftist. Propagandist. The Enemy.

I'm not a Trump booster, and I'm not a Trump basher. I like what he's doing on the Birth Certificate issue; but he's pretty low on my list of people I want to see as president.

A disturbing pattern I've been seeing is that when someone speaks out against him, Trump often seems to respond with: "Look, I'm a lot smarter than you."

I consider that to be a poor strategy for just about anyone -- certainly a bad strategy for people in politics.

How right he is. De Niro plays characters with smarts, but when you see him. Interviewed, you realize it was all in the writers’ dialogue. Plus all his girlfriends happen to be black so he is a part of the group who supports Obama for a dumb reason.

so refreshing, someone stating that they like an actor’s movies but that the guy is an idiot. Really makes the point that actors’ have nothing qualifying their opinions on politics as even being necessarily informed.

I agree. It is not presidential, and certainly not diplomatic to directly call someone stupid. A statesman would do it much more delicately. You know, something like saying:

When it comes to knowledge of political affairs, Robert DeNiro is a fine actor.

Not many of the so called stars are the sharpest knife in the drawer..And Dinero is one of them..Give them a piece of paper no matter what it has on it as long as the name Barack Obama or Bill Clinton and they will lay down and roll over for a treat from either one of them..

“. . . other records Obama is hiding.”

THAT’S JUST IT!! In the past, Presidents’ university grade records, medical records, military records, and just about everything else have been public knowledge. Yet, with Obama, we “great unwashed” are told that he’s a TOTALLY HEALTHY GENIUS; and we’re to just believe it and shut up and sit down and we’re “racist” if we don’t.

With no logical basis to shut up and sit down.
