I’m a huge Robert De Niro fan. Goodfellas, Godfather Part II, Raging Bull, Analyze This, Cape Fear, Taxi Driver Heat, Casino, and Wag The Dog are fantastic movies. At the same time, I can also say that his politics suck. De Niro is a big time Democrat and hater of President Trump. We’ve known this for a bit. So, it shouldn’t shock us that he dropped an F-Bomb at the Tony Awards last night.
“F**k Trump,” said the Academy Award winning actor. And, of course, the whole audience went crazy with applause (via Fox News) [Warning: strong language):
Here's video of DeNiro swearing at Trump on #TonyAwards

“I'm gonna say one thing: f--- Trump!" he stated, as he clenched his two fists in the air, leaving panic-stricken broadcast censors trying bleep out the remarks. "It's no longer down with Trump, it's f--- Trump!"
The U.S. viewers at home heard dead silence, though in other regions the f-bombs reportedly weren’t censored. The expletives sparked a roaring reaction from the audience, with many of the celebrities standing up.
Trump's strategy to win again in 2020: Follow through on as many 2016 campaign promises as he can.

Democrat strategy to win in 2020: Dress like vaginas, yell "F-Trump," support whatever's opposed to Trump including gangs and terrorists, keep making excuses for Hillary.
WARNING: Strong language in this tweet.
Hollywood here’s your problem. Deniro says “Fuck Trump.” Bee says Ivanka is “a cunt.” Maher “hopes for a recession to get rid of Trump.” That’s all you got? Do you have any clue as to how this plays right into Trump’s playbook? Keep it up and you’ll help ensure four more years.

This is another huge in-kind contribution to the Trump campaign. Thanks, Robert. I’m not complaining; the Left seems committed to another electoral defeat. Hating Trump only makes his base stronger. It only pushes more people on the right, who are on the fence, towards the president. And it accomplishes nothing. No votes were gained with this outburst. It just stroked egos and made liberals feel better about how they’re garbage human beings whose politics are insufferable. It only made them feel better for a second, but in the end, when all the hysteria has died down and equilibrium has taken hold—Trump is still president. You still lost. And there’s nothing you can do about it. American liberalism is only for the elite. That’s what should be gleaned with this remark, and how they react when they don’t get their way. Liberalism is only for people in the cities, on the coasts, and to those who think their college and graduate degrees make them morally superior; they don’t. What we’ve seen over the past 18 months or so is how progressive America is really a-hole central.
In that time, instead of saying, “F**k Trump,” they could have reached out to rural voters, talked about job creation (and protections), middle class tax cuts, and maybe thought about trade. Nope. Trump decided to do all that. He created 3 million jobs since he was elected, passed a tax reform package that benefits the middle and working classes, and is tackling trade. Maybe nothing will come of it. That’s possible, but his voters, which included millions of Democrats in 2016, also see something else: the American president fighting back against what they perceive is unfair trade agreements. Democrats just said Trump is a bad, bad man in response both in 2016 and today. Hating Trump is not a platform. It’ll only leave you with an electorate that got him into the White House in the first place, so please Democrats—hate Trump. Call us deplorable. Call us trash. Call us racists. Call us backwards. We’ll give it right back to you ten-fold. I remember how the Left hated Bush, but this Trump bashing is something different. If anything, it made me realize that I made the right choice to register as a Republican when I turned 18. It also made me realize that I’ll definitely be voting for Trump in 2020. I want to see tears of agony on the faces of my enemies again. But remember, that won’t happen if you don’t vote in November.
If comedian Samantha Bee calling Ivanka Trump a “feckless c**t” doesn’t get you motivated to beat these people at the polls, I don’t know what else will get you energized. These people hate us. They always will.
My favorite part is where de Niro raises his fists after cursing, like he just did it--Trump's out of office. Mission Accomplished.

UPDATE: MSNBC says this pretty much helps Trump. Thanks, again Hollywood left-wingers.
