Robert De Niro slams Trump as an 'idiot' and a 'fool' in awards gala speech

Robert De Niro reportedly slammed President Trump in a speech Tuesday night, calling Trump a “f---ing idiot” and a “f---ing fool.”

De Niro was speaking at the National Board of Review Annual Awards Gala. According to The New York Times, he used the occasion to tear into Trump.

“This f---ing idiot is the president,” De Niro said, according to a transcript provided by a Times reporter. “It’s The Emperor’s New Clothes - this guy is a f---ing fool.” De Niro also blasted Trump for his repeated attacks on the media.

“Our baby-in-chief - the jerkoff-in-chief, I call him - has put the press under siege, ridiculing it through trying to discredit it through outrageous attacks and lies,” he said, according to the Times.

“And again, just like in 1971, the press is distinguishing itself with brave, exacting journalism,” De Niro continued, referring to the media’s coverage of the Watergate scandal.

De Niro has previously slammed Trump, calling him a “flat-out blatant racist” and once sayingin a viral video that he would like to “punch him in the face.”

The Academy Award winner endorsed Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton in the 2016 election.

Another actor who knows more than the rest of us because he played someone smart in a movie.

I’ve never felt any real envy towards President Trump...until he gets such accolades from the likes of DeNiro. I mean hell, I worked so much harder for them I think.

Probably never read a book unless it was a script for one of his roles. A real imbecile.

Like a typical liberal, he has nothing but insults, vulgarity, and outright lies to demonstrate his arguments. It’s so easy to be a liberal, just spitting curses at everything you don’t understand, as though it substitutes for something rational. It’s a language they all understand, though.

He's a moron; that's for sure and certain!

And he almost ALWAYS just plays the same roll, so he isn't even "acting"; if you know what I mean.

I don't know how to check it out, but a friend of mine who lived in NYC for twenty years says there's bad blood between De Niro and Trump that goes back to the mid-eighties over some Real Estate deal.

I don't know how they'd have ever been at odds over RE so does anyone from NYC or that area have any idea whether there's anything to that?

I once went to a dinner theater that De Niro worked at before he made it to Hollywood.

The staff told me that De Niro was such an a$$hole that he was fired in the middle of a performance and literally thrown out of the place.

Unless de Niro was trying to buy an apartment in some Trump owned building, which fell through, they would NEVER meet nor be in competition for any real estate!

That is hardly surprising.

He ALWAYS plays arseholes and he probably is NOT "acting"!

I think Tony Soprano pegged DeNiro quite accurately.

Tony Soprano meets Jack Nicholson and Robert DeNiro
