Hollywood actor Robert De Niro unleashed a profanity-laced tirade against President Donald Trump during a Hands Off Our Vote rally in New York City on Sunday, underscoring once again how deeply entrenched Trump Derangement Syndrome remains in certain corners of the entertainment industry.
The Hands Off Our Vote gathering, described as a far-left voter mobilization event, was organized by Indivisible and Hands Off NYC, according to Gateway Pundit. Fellow Hollywood figure Mark Ruffalo also addressed the crowd, reinforcing the increasingly partisan role of celebrity activism in Democratic politics.
De Niro, who has long used his platform to attack conservatives, escalated his rhetoric as he worked the crowd of New York progressives. When that coward, that f*cking piece of sh*t Donald Trump tries to take our voice and power away, what do we tell him? De Niro shouted, prompting the audience to respond on cue.
Keep your f*cking hands off our vote! he said, as the assembled leftists erupted into applause. He then pressed on with a campaign-style cadence, declaring, Now with your commitment and support were gonna send him away!
The actor, whose recent public appearances have centered more on politics than film, urged the crowd to seize political power at every level. Take back the House! Yes! Take back the Senate! Yes! Take back the power! Yes! Take back our country! Yes! De Niro shouted before walking away from the lectern.
De Niro has previously appeared at No Kings rallies and repeatedly trashed Trump in sit-down interviews with left-wing media outlets, cementing his status as a reliable attack dog for the progressive cause. In 2024, that hostility backfired when he was heckled and chased off by Trump supporters after another anti-Trump press conference in Manhattan, where he lashed out at them, yelling, You are gangsters! as they called him a loser.
