Protesters yelled at De Niro, calling him a “little punk” whose “movies suck,” after he spoke at a news conference in a Manhattan courthouse.
The illustrious Robert De Niro and two Capitol officers were confronted by an antagonistic public outside the Manhattan courtroom, who was condemning his every action.De Niro then gave an impassioned speech at a press conference, drawing parallels to the events that followed the collapse of the Twin Towers. He made it clear that they would not back down from their resistance to other assaults on their way of life. Such a beautiful city. Keeping it intact is important to me.
In his pursuit of global dominance, Donald Trump has set his sights on obliterating not only the city but the nation as a whole. “You can say goodbye to these freedoms if that guy gets back into the White House,” he continued. And voting? Put it out of your mind. That was finished. “He will never leave if he gets in.”Following the event, De Niro addressed the pro-Trump demonstrators who had referred to him as a “wannabe,” “paid sell-out,” and “little punk.” De Niro retorted, “You’re not going to make an impression. Your president does that. Retaliation is what we intend to do. In this world, we’re attempting to be gentlemanly. You’re all criminals.
A demonstrator said, “You’re washed up,” during the confrontation, and De Niro responded, “F— you.” Amidst the tense atmosphere, a devoted admirer broke the silence by yelling, “I loved you in ‘Taxi Driver’!”
The event highlighted the deep differences and tremendous emotions surrounding the impending election and Trump’s legal troubles.
