A Trump supporter crashed a showing of Robert De Niro‘s musical A Bronx Tale on Saturday with a “Keep America Great!” flag.

The protestor stood up during the curtain call of the De Niro directed musical and showed off his Trump 2020 flag, before being escorted out, according to one audience member who snapped a pic of the spectacle.

As actors in the musical took their bows, the man can be seen in photos posted to Twitter in the front row raising a flag that read “Trump 2020” and “Keep America Great!”

The move comes after De Niro sparked a news cycle by declaring “Fuck Donald Trump” at the Tony Award’s in New York. The actor has long been a fierce critic of the president.

Fox News reported that Brian Strumwasser, a hair department supervisor on A Bronx Tale, took to Instagram to blast the protestor.

“Whoever the low life scum bag who thinks it’s ok to post their political views at a Broadway show and disrespect everyone there who paid to watch a show

that is ALL ABOUT INCLUSION was thankfully removed from the theater Saturday night,” Strumwasser wrote in a caption.

“Robert De Niro is one of our directors and has started in the movie and was able to make 6000 people roar and cheer @thetonyawards for saying ‘F*CK TRUMP,’” Strumwasser continued. “If @realdonaldtrump wants to visit @bronxtalemusical maybe he himself will learn what racism is and how we deal with it. #f–ktrump…#dontf–kwiththebronx.”
