Robert De Niro Shouts “F**k Trump” At Tony Awards, Gets Standing Ovation

Via ZeroHedge

Two weeks after Robert De Niro issued a complete ban for Donald Trump from his restaurants, and just months after he unleashed a profanity-laden tirade in January, in which he called Trump “baby in chief,” “jerkoff in chief” and “a fucking idiot”, overnight the aging “Raging Bull” took his feud with Trump to a new level when De Niro repeatedly declared “Fuck Trump” while speaking onstage at the Tony Awards on Sunday night to introduce Bruce Springsteen’s musical performance, and promptly received a standing ovation.

The profanity was bleeped out in the live broadcast, but tweets from attendees and reporters confirmed De Niro’s remarks.

“I’m going to say one thing: ‘Fuck Trump,’” said De Niro, who was presenting an award at the ceremony. “It’s no longer ‘down with Trump,’ it’s ‘fuck Trump’.”

While the outburst from the iconic actor, who has been one of Trump’s harshest critics in the entertainment industry was not surprising, the support De Niro received from the audience was: the political statement earned De Niro a standing ovation from the crowd at Radio City Music Hall which erupted in cheers, while CBS scrambled to bleep the audio on the live telecast.

After the audience settled, De Niro got back to talking about Springsteen, who received a special Tony Award during Sunday night. The intimate show, “Springsteen on Broadway” — or as De Niro referred to it, “Jersey Boy” — features the Boss performing his music and sharing stories from his 2016 autobiography “Born to Run.” Tickets to the exclusive concert residency, which has been extended twice, are over $850.

As we reported at the time, last month De Niro said that Trump was banned from all of his Nobu restaurants and hotels, though a representative for De Niro later denied that was the case.

22winmag - when you ask someone which floor they'd like, and they respond with "ladies lingerie"- they're referencing the AEROSMITH SONG!!!

If De Niro was around before the advent of motion pictures, he’d be just another wild-eyed, bomb-throwing, marxist agitator.

Loser!

‘course, the same PTB that oppose Trump are those that are also intent on forcing tens-of-vaccines on kids, which DeNiro believes caused his child’s autism. WTF?

Then he doesn’t have the courage to push back against the bastards who demanded he pull the documentary “Vaxxed” out of his Tribeca flim-flam festival. He’s weak and washed up.

Too bad for “dimniro!” He is too stupid to realize that he is including everyone that voted for President Trump in that statement. I just banned myself and my family from ever seeing another “dimniro” movie!

It’s that standing ovation that needs to be examined.

The difference between how the Right treated Obama during his reign and how the Leftists treat Trump during his is so obvious and so representative of the divide in this country and the nature of the Left that no one can ignore it and pretend there is any reconciliation between the two sides.

At this point, he future of our country is looking to be interesting at the least.

For the upcoming elections, all the right has to is show in an endless loop is DeNiro’s rant, Kathy Griffin’s decapitation, the dancing mayor of Philadelphia, Samantha Bee’s feckless remark, Bill Clinton’s defense of his actions, and anything Hillary or Nancy Pelosi has said in the past two years, and they will win going away.

Why do these entertainment people think anybody gives a shit about their political opinions? We don’t.

From left to right they can flock right off with their bloated self importance. They’re all just embarrassing, self righteous, overpaid celluloid creations. Make a decent movie/TV show and then GTFO.

Their opinions can matter. Someone somewhere might be on the cusp of voting for a lib when they suddenly realize they’re voting the same way as Nathan Lane and pull back from the precipice.

Of course they matter. If some dumb fucks can be swayed by Russian trolls on Facebook then everything is up for grabs.

Be very afraid. This “tolerant” leftist behavior is civil. What they will do if given enough power will
be truly fearful.Think Stalin.

Not only is he a pussy, but he’s Podesta pervy.

Actor Robert De Niro Was Spotted With Marina Abramovic At The Opening Of His Tribeca Penthouse

Marina Abramovic recently hit headlines around the world when it was exposed by WikiLeaks that she and Hillary Clinton’s Campaign Manager, John Podesta, had been involved in Spirit Cooking through an email exchange between Marina Abramovic and Tony Podesta, John Podesta’s brother.

The Podestas’ “Spirit Cooking” dinner?
It’s not what you think.
It’s blood, sperm and breastmilk.
But mostly blood.

Extremely doubtful DJT would ever want or need to patronize that once-respected-for-acting-talent low class, miserable wretch at any of his places of business.
Newsflash:!
Trump has larger, nicer hotels of his own, and doesn’t need to dine at some dive owned by a Guido who married and had kids with an Obama lover who probably cuts him off, if he doesn’t publicly denounce and attack the POTUS.
I won’t even say his name, and certainly won’t watch or listen to anything he has to say.
Ditto, for Springsteen.
Total loss of respect for him, too.
A has-been.

Other then despising Trump for the snub of not worshiping at their alter of self-righteous political correctness, what do these people have against Trump (and us) to elicit such hatred? May be that’s enough.

“Today countless numbers of those who laughed at that time, laugh no longer. Those who are still laughing now, also will perhaps laugh no longer after a while . . . ”
A. Hitler

The people carrying on like De Niro need to understand that these kinds of things can take you down a road that you do not want to go down. Screaming “Fuck Trump!” live on national television and into our living rooms while everyone stands up and cheers looks to me like a challenge. Up until quite recently, an insult like that would result in an immediate duel. Just ask Hamilton, Burr (who was Vice President at the time), Jackson, Henry Clay, Lincoln as they were all involved in duels. Our representatives used to shoot each other all the time.

De Niro, though, wasn’t just yelling at Trump but the majority of voters that support him. Threatening a bunch of people (I took it as a threat) to the applause of an out of touch globalist elite while on national television might be something that the liberal elite might come to regret. All of this technology – facial recognition technology to be precise means that the people that are laughing now may have to continue to do so behind the walls of their gated communities. They can laugh there a while longer.
