Robert De Niro Clashed With Pro-Trump Protesters Outside Trial

Actor Robert De Niro got into a verbal argument with pro-Trump protesters who called him a “little punk” whose “movies suck.” De Niro spoke at a news conference held by US President Joe Biden’s presidential campaign outside the courtroom where Trump is on trial. The actor warned about the perils of re-electing the former president, stating, “Trump wants to destroy not only the city but the country.” “If Trump returns to the White House, you can kiss these freedoms goodbye that we all take for granted. And elections — forget about it. That’s over; that’s done. If he gets in, I can tell you right now, he will never leave,” said De Niro. While heading back to his car after the conference, the actor got into a clash with protesters who called him a “paid sell-out.” The Hollywood star replied, “We’re trying to be gentlemen in this world, the Democrats. You are gangsters. You are gangsters!”
