De Niro To Trump: Don’t Say Things Unless You Can Back It Up, ‘How Dare You’

» 71 comments

Last night at the Tribeca Film Festival in New York City, Robert De Niro sat down for an interview with NBC’s Brian Williams and shared his opinion about today’s politics. De Niro didn’t approve of Republican tactics during budget negotiations, but a bit more interesting, was the fact that the Oscar winner is now joining a growing list of celebrities who are lashing out at Donald Trump.

Speaking about the potential government shutdown, De Niro was quoted according to Movieline saying:

“How did we get to this point? . . . This is crazy. And I know Obama was trying to bridge the gap. His intentions are really good. Maybe some things are not as good as we all would like, but his intentions were right. A lot of these guys, they’re intentions are not even good. They’re just playing the game. And they’re playing with people’s lives.”

However, when talk turned to Trump, De Niro got even more pointed with his comments. At first De Niro tried to avoid making his comments specific, suggesting any potential political candidate “get the facts before you start saying things about people.” However, when Williams pressed whether De Niro was talking about Trump, De Niro confirmed and stated:

“It’s like a big hustle. It’s like being a car salesman. Don’t go out there and say things unless you can back them up. How dare you? That’s awful to do. To just go out and speak and say these terrible things? Unless you just wanna get over and get the job. It’s crazy.”

If Trump keeps angering celebrities like this, then if he decides for some reason not to run for President, there might be no one left willing to do another season of Celebrity Apprentice!

    Yay! Hollywood weighs in. How about getting Oliver Stone to directed the birther movie. Oliver’s films are so “spot on”!

    Which one, Beavis or Butthead was DeNiro pretending to be it that skit?

    Don’t worry yourself about no left wing bomb throwing liberals from Hollyweed, don’t need em.

    Next season will be the first season of, The ” Disgraced Ex Democrat Members of Congress ” Apprentice.

    They will start out passing out paper towels and spritzing in the ” FOX HEADQUARTERS ” executive mens room in Manhatten and work all the way up to busboy in the executive dining room.

    Too bad they won’t be able to hobnob with their idols Hannity and O’reilly while on duty, but they will be entitle to 20% off their autographed items in the company gift shop in the basement.

  • Chudi

    According to him, obama’s intentions were good..right? How come Obama and the democrats didn’t pass the budget last yr? They had re-elections…that’s right. They now left it to the republicans to do this yr, but their intentions were right. The republicans are the evil ones with bad intentions.

    What an imbecile.

  • Colorado_Conservative

    And just what did Trump say that is so terrible Mr.DeNiro? Asking legitimate questions? Wanting answers? Whats so terrible about that?
    Or maybe you are referring to the Obama is the worst President ever comment which would mean you don’t support free speech. How dare someone come out and speak the truth about our incompetent community organizer because it upsets the elite hollywood liberals…..boo hoo bobby wah

    I believe that when those in the media really desire to say something nasty about a politician (usually a Republican), they “ask” a celebrity about them. It never fails.

    Why would anyone have asked DeNiro about Trump? Who cares?!

    It’s a set up… a “say this because I can’t” situation. We’ve seen it before… Bush, Palin, and so on. It’s SOP at this point… just a political trick.

  • MTinMO

    Trumpet is just reading off the pages of gobbledygook Oily Taitz is putting out with no evidence to back it up. Just proves Trumpet isn’t as smart as he wants everyone to think he is! What an as s he is, which shouldn’t be too surprising since he has his head up there.

    Seriously..why can’t Actor/musicians just STFU! On both sides. It only makes it worse for both sides. I’m NEVER gonna see a Clooney movie,cuz IT’S ONLY A MOVIE that is gonna cost me $12. and I’m sure the left will NEVER go to a ….hmmmmm…..can’t think of a rock hard conservative actor/musician….but you get my point lol

  • http://www.mediaite.com/tv/glenn-beck-explains-how-the-unions-are-using-teachers-firefighters-and-co ImNotBlue

    @ Paul

    I put the blame on this one squarely on Brian Williams’ shoulders. Why did he ask that question in the first place?

    That’s different than (building on your post) someone like Clooney, who goes out of his way to be political and involve himkself politically. DeNiro, it seems, was only answering the question asked… not going out of his way to make a statement.

    I think the example of Billy Joel versus Bruce Springsteen is a demonstration of the right and wrong way to be a political entertainer. Joel has done some fundraisers, and is known to be a left-of-center guy… but he doesn’t thrust that opinion on his audience, and has some humility about it all. Springsteen preaches his politics in concerts, and goes beyond the bounds of respect for his audience.

    You can’t expect all entertainers to agree with you… but treat the audience with respect. DeNiro I’ll give a pass for this. It is Williams who is to blame.

  • mitchflorida

    Brian Williams is a basically an Obama-fan, and will do or say anything to help him. He actually does a head bow after he interviews Obama, he is that servile.

  • The Lantern of Truth

    Wow . Did not know that DeNiro was so simpleminded .

  • http://www.snowspot.net Snowspot

    What he means by “the game” is when politicians take money or bribes from big corporations in return for LEGALLY doing everything they can to get immoral or things the populace does not want, put into law. To do this they come up with a confusing excuse for why they are passing the law and how it will benefit everyone even though it’s clearly only going to benefit whatever corporation bribed the congressman in the first place. The most important part though is that everyhting has to be legal, this is how George Bush made torture legal, he found a way to re-define torture, by doing this he LEGALLY established torture as not illegal.

    Yes, torture became enhanced interrogation techniques, and bribes to Republicans have became gracious acceptance of well-intentioned support.

    And what an IDIOT De Niro is – “Obama has the right intentions….” blah, blah, blah, yada yada yada.

    Trump is pissing off a lot of people by behaving so badly. Equally disturbing is that he’s temporarily the front runner amongst Republican contenders. I’ve been racking my brains trying to figure out why a lot of people find this character an attractive potential candidate, and I have a theory. Donald Trump is the ultimate bully who will, if necessary, crack heads to get this country moving. I think that’s what a lot of rightwingers are longing for, a ’strongman’ who will come along and make everything right, literally and figuratively. In our slow rightward drift, Trump is a little bit like the original fascist strongman, the one and only Benito Mussolini. Contrary to rightwing propaganda, fascism isn’t socialism writ large, but, rather, it’s what happens when capitalism goes out of control. Fascism, according to it’s originator, Benito Mussolini, is when corporations and the government merge, and the individual’s interests become secondary to the state. Mussolini was a reletively benovolent leader until the worldwide depression and Hitler’s rise to power swept him into Hitler’s demonic orbit. My feeling is the Trump blitz will last another few weeks until the rightwingers find out that Trump is not the real Benito Mussolini deal. Trump has much too much baggage and absolutely no principles, good or bad.

Mussolini was a reletively benovolent leader until the worldwide depression and Hitler’s rise to power swept him into Hitler’s demonic orbit.”

    Jonah Goldberg has an excellent analysis of Mussolini, who was FDR’s hero in 1933, and how Benito was co-opted and afterwards quickly corrupted by his evil northern twin, Adolf the Terrible. Actually both were not as bad as the USSR’s Stalin, who was killing millions of his own people by famine and purges in the ’30s while NYT reporter Walter Duranty [any relation to Jimmy?] got a Pulitzer for praising Josef for his “reforms.” Hitler and Stalin were two socialists in the same category, only Stalin killed more Russians than he did any other nationality.

    “I believe that when those in the media really desire to say something nasty about a politician (usually a Republican), they “ask” a celebrity about them.”

    And when “those in the media” are clueless celebrity-wannabees like Brian Williams, who keeps popping up on 30Rock and other non-news programs, you’re going to get a lot of very senseless and extremely stupid questions to senseless and stupid celebritards of the De Niro variety. Hasn’t done anything good since GoodFellas about 20 years ago and even his cameos on Limitless were type-casting.

    Snow… how many people write under your name? There are times when you’re very reasonable and make a good deal of sense. Then there are other times (like this), where you fly off the rails and start hurling “Nazi” language around. So I’m inclined to believe that either you start drinking heavily, and get progressively nastier as that happens (or vice-versa with you sobering up)… or you’re multiple people typing under one name.

    Not really… but only because Hannity isn’t a “news” guy, he’s an “opinion” guy. The celebrities visit him specifically TO GIVE their opinion (and if you think only Conservative celebrities talk to Hannity, you’re not paying attention), as opposed to him visiting celebrities to ask their opinion.

    But, that distinction aside, the point is still the same… they’re celebrities, so what is their area of expertise when it comes to politics. And yes, that is the same for the left AND for the right. Do you agree?

    Why would anyone care about what Trump has to say?

    Because he’s become more than just a celebrity, he appears to be attempting a run a politics. Once the celebrity has entered the realm of politics, it’s legitimate to question their opinions and their credentials. Of course, this isn’t often applied equally… do you think DeNiro will get the same kind of scrutiny that Trump has been getting? Doubtful.

    Do you have the facts, Mr. De Niro?

    Do you have Mr. Obama’s original birth certificate, a contemporaneous record of birth showing birth parents? (Probably Stanley Armour Dunham and a currently unknown Hawai’ian wahine.)

    Do you have scientific and unambiguous documentary evidence that Stanley Ann Dunham and Obama the alien Luo tribesman, were Mr. Obama’s birth parents?

    Do you want the facts? Have you joined the call for congressional investigation of Mr. Obama’s constitutional eligibility and true allegiance?

    Mr. Trump was asking for facts. What’s wrong with that? If, and there’s good reason to expect it, Mr. Obama’s original birth certificate shows he was born to two U.S. citizen parents 4 August 1961 in Honolulu, wouldn’t that be a good thing?.Wouldn’t you like that?

    So why don’t you join the call for a congressional investigation to find the facts and resolve the issues?

    Do you fear an exhaustive official investigation will also find that Mr. Obama obstructed justice by criminal acts to cover up his Indonesian citizenship, which might have cost him his U.S. citizenship and constitutional eligibility?

    Do you fear that a young lad, subject to communist indoctrination from birth and horrified by mass murders of communists and suspected communists in Indonesia about the time he was living there, would be moved to become a Comintern agent at early maturity or before, and that hearings might bring this out?

    Joe, never let anyone tell you that you’re not classy, or that you don’t lower yourself to the level you think “everyone else” is at, simply to cover for your own latent nastiness.

    And if they tell you… don’t believe them. Because really, what fun would being an adult be?

    In fairness, conspiracy theories and conspiracy theorists, particularly the crazed, inarticulate sort, bring out the very worst in everyone. I’m not unsympathetic to Joe, although I don’t use such language.

    Well… I wouldn’t describe Albert as “inarticulate.” He did a decent job laying out his claims… they’re just wacky.

    As for Joe… he and I go back a bit, and I know that he is rather capable of making a good and reasoned argument. However, he sometimes resorts to childish name calling like the above, and then insists is “isn’t his fault,” it’s everyone else’s fault because he just wants to talk like them. Nonsense. And so I call him out on it.

    As for you, Royal… do your really think you’re in any position to criticize (or praise) anyone else’s language? You’re one of the nastiest and most vile posters on this site. If your not using nasty nicknames for people you disagree with, you’re off thinking about new nasty nicknames to use next time you come around. So I’m not sure you’re really the one to comment on such matters.

    He STFU when it’s done to conservatives (Palin comes to mind… Andrew Sullivan???) so he can just STFU now.

    You might save you’re petty sermonettes for someone who gives a tinker’s toot.

    You might well have a point, but there is no moral equivalency between someone questioning suitability and someone questioning legitimacy. Both can have nasty components, to be sure. But the latter is far more egregious.

    I get your point. But I was more making a point about Palin Birthers VS. Obama Birthers. And the acceptance by the MSM of Palin Birthers and the rejection of Obama Birthers.

    Another Hollywood actor is carrying Obama’s water? Say it ain’t so.

    Yet it will never be questioned or mentioned De Niro does have one of the lowest IQ’s in Hollywood that you wont hear about from the media. He dropped out of school as a child.

For this, we need a Bond… James Bond. BA-DA dummm… BA-DA dummm… dundudndudndah… (That’s me humming the theme song.)

    The dumbf*ck accused the President of being a Communist plant. There’s no “classy” coming anywhere NEAR that. There’s dozens of dumbass racist birthers on this site.

    Blue has a tendency to confuse me with the “civil discourse” crowd. I’m not a fan..I’m all in for a reasoned discussion OR a raging argument, depending on the company at hand. You wanna talk news and politics..I’m all in. You wanna be a crazed loon shouting “d-crat socialist”, “Comintern”, or “guns and kevlar” – all phrases I’ve encountered around here – I’m gonna give you all the “dumbf*ck” you’ve got coming to ya. Party on, girls.

    De Niro is just an actor…like anybody cares what he thinks or if in fact he does think at all.

    So, Nero drank the Obambi Koolade, huh? Not surprising, as he is a Liberal Puke and apparently not smart enough to keep his mouth shut. When are the Hollywood Idiots going to realize, we like their acting but could care less about their personal political beliefs, just as they could care less about mine. Actors are like children, they should be seen but not heard! NOBAMA 2012!

    ALLEN WEST 2012! A proven Leader, Patriot, and a Born American with a REAL BC he is not afraid to show, unlike Obama!

  • Pyrodude

    For NOBAMA2012, another quote from P.J. O’Rourke:

    “Liberals are smarter than conservatives….that’s why I like conservatives….they are dumber and have fewer ideas”

    (P.J. on Stossel’s show)
