In 1984, the actor from “Goodfellas” was so popular that a girl group called Bananarama made a song about him called “Robert De Niro’s Waiting.” It was a big hit and stayed at the top of the charts for 12 weeks.
At the end of May, Robert De Niro, who supports the Democratic Party, was seen outside a court in Manhattan where Donald Trump’s trial about hush money was happening. De Niro was at an event supporting Joe Biden’s campaign.
De Niro used this opportunity to tell people not to vote for Trump in the upcoming presidential election. He said Trump wants to “ruin not just the city, but the whole country.”
“We’ve forgotten the lessons from history when we didn’t take certain leaders seriously until they turned into cruel dictators,” De Niro said to reporters outside the courthouse. “With Trump, we have a chance to stop him by voting him out.”
He continued, “I’m not trying to scare you. Well, maybe I am. If Trump stays in power, he won’t leave.”
Not everyone agreed with him. De Niro faced angry Trump supporters who criticized him.
Trying to defend himself, the actor from “Raging Bull” says, “You’re not going to scare us. That’s what Trump does, tries to scare people. We have to fight back.”
According to the Associated Press, Trump’s senior campaign adviser, Jason Miller, called the award-winning actor “a washed-up actor.”
“We’re trying to be nice in this world. You’re the ones acting like gangsters!” responds the father of eight.
Amid the loud heckling, another voice yells, “Robert De Niro! You’re just a little troublemaker… you’re not important! Your movies are bad!”
