De Niro previously said in an video for a non-partisan campaign: 'He talks how he wants to punch people in the face. Well, I'd like to punch him in the face'



De Niro previously said in an video for a non-partisan campaign called #VoteYourFuture: 'I mean, he's so blatantly stupid. He's a punk. He's a dog. He's a pig.

'He's a con, a bulls*** artist. A mutt who doesn't know what he's talking about.'

He said in the video: 'He talks how he wants to punch people in the face. Well, I'd like to punch him in the face.

'This is somebody that we want for president? I don't think so. What I care about is the direction of this country.

'And what I'm very, very worried about is that it might go in the wrong direction with someone like Donald Trump.'

De Niro also spoke about Trump on Jimmy Kimmel Live! Wednesday.

The talk show host asked: 'Are you still gonna punch Donald Trump in the face? Because you can now get arrested for that I think, yeah.'

De Niro replied: 'I can't do that now, he's the president. But you know, and I have to respect that position, though I, we all know it, I mean, anyway.'

He trailed off and chuckled.



De Niro said: 'You know, I just have to - we have to see how, what he's going to do and how he's really going to follow through on certain things.

'And as we even see now, in a lot of cities, there's a lot of people getting very upset and protesting.'

Kimmel said in the interview: 'I'm sure President Obama is speaking from his own personal experience when he didn't get a whole lot of support, and he's saying, "Hey, we have to… you know, we're all on the same team."

'And - but occasionally teammates do punch each other in the face.'

De Niro said, referring to Trump going to the White House on Thursday: 'Well you know, maybe [Obama] will when he sees him tomorrow.'

Just another liberal crybaby. You did not see the right wing Americans riot or cry when Obama won two presidential terms. The world does not revolve around liberals, nor is anyone entitled to cater to their needs or feelings. In fact no one gives a damn about you besides other stupid liberals.


Notice how liberal play the race, tolerance and piece card but when they don't get their way they resort to violence, threats and racial slurs.

Liberals believed they were on a moral high horse. Nobody looks good when they get unhorsed.

Mr. De Niro, you are very wealthy individual, but I would still be glad to buy you and some of your Hollywood crybaby friends a one-way first-class ticket to anywhere in the world.

Just as long as you agree never to come back to the United States.

P.S. I'll even pack your bags and take you to the airport.

I sort of agree, but right-wingers in the US were pissed about Obamas victory for years after he won, only they didn't riot. I remember all kinds of insults and slur being thrown around, such as nigger, antichrist, Kenyan, Muslim, terrorist etc.

Even Trump was leading the movement for a birth certificate, since he refused to accept he was an American citizen.

Welcome to Liberistan.

A nation with extension counters in every nation of the world.

A large toxic one camped permanently in mine.

Of course right winger were pissed at Obama, some purely for political reasons and other in part to race but the fact is they excepted the results twice and stuck it out for 8 years under him. There were no riots or petty violent protests calling for the Republican nominee to take Obama's place.

Moreover, we did not see mass racial attacks against Democrats or blacks like we are witnessing with these liberal right wingers violently beating Trump supporters while screaming racial slurs at them. (the irony is they accuse Trump supporters of being racists). In fact the leftists were partaking in this behavior long before Trump won the election. When the leftists are not violent they try to indimidate opponents by using threats, surrounding smaller crowds and using passive aggressive tactics such as grabbing objects out of people's hands, knocking hats of people's heads and so on, they also shame their rivals and try to suppress free speech. Liberals seem to think that only they are entitled to express their views and anyone who has a different narrative should shut up because, well you know, they will use a blow horn and scream RACIST! In your ear.

The US has a hardcore right-wing, hardcore left-wing and a third group sitting on the fence. It's this group in the middle that tilts American elections. Florida, Ohio and Pennsylvania in particular.

If the Democrats want to keep winning elections, they must start industrializing some key states really fast and pack them up with immigrants. Too late for that now.

Totally disrespectful towards the victims of 9/11.

They need to completely reorganize the party and dump out all of the 'career politicians' they have.

This election proved that the Democrats have completely lost the working class vote, showing how out of touch they have become with the average voter. Right now they need progressive candidates like Bernie Sanders to spearhead a leftist reproach to politics which brought millions of previously independent/ republican into the Democrat political process during the primaries.

They lost the working class vote because they made Clinton stand. She's corrupt, she has the oligarchy in her pocket, overall a very bad choice for the US.

This was supposed to be Sanders's election. Such a waste. Now he's too old to come back as a 79-year-old.

There could be hope for the future, Tulsi Gabbard was one of the first people to endorse Sanders and she resigned her position in the party to do so. If she were to make a comeback and stand for the nomination in 2020 continuing Sanders message, I think she might be able to win.

"Liberal" turds and their false equivalence.

You are right. She risked so much. And how cool is that? Someone from the subcontinent has the potential to be the first female President. But I fear she might be a bit too progressive for America. Hopefully things change by then.

Not a Trump fan. I detest him as a matter of fact.

But this just isn't right. Just like those idiots who crashed Canada's immigration site, protests and what not. Don't like him? Use your democratic instruments, and vote. Fight it out. It is your country and a democracy.
