Robert De Niro Calls Trump 'Jerkoff-in-Chief'

As a fan of American cinema, I find it sad that Robert De Niro has decided to discredit himself by exuding such hatred of President Trump in a public forum.

From The Hill:

Robert De Niro reportedly slammed President Trump in a speech Tuesday night, calling Trump a “f---ing idiot” and a “f---ing fool.”

De Niro was speaking at the National Board of Review Annual Awards Gala. According to The New York Times, he used the occasion to tear into Trump.

“This f---ing idiot is the president,” De Niro said, according to a transcript provided by a Times reporter. “It’s The Emperor’s New Clothes - this guy is a f---ing fool.”

De Niro also blasted Trump for his repeated attacks on the media.

“Our baby-in-chief - the jerkoff-in-chief, I call him - has put the press under siege, ridiculing it through trying to discredit it through outrageous attacks and lies,” he said, according to the Times.

“And again, just like in 1971, the press is distinguishing itself with brave, exacting journalism,” De Niro continued, referring to the media’s coverage of the Watergate scandal.
Who is ridiculing whom?
