 I wish these actors would just collect their awards and leave the stage.

Who gives a flying *uck about their political opinions. 

 

 

Jon Voight? James Woods? Kevin Sorbo?

That's the problem. His acting is no longer strong enough to forget who he is.

 

I don't see the character. I see De Niro playing a character. We all decline with age. 

 

Like boxers it is sometimes best to bow out in your prime. Nobody wants a ruined legacy. 

Fair take — and yeah, it’s true that age hits everyone, actors included.

Make-believe tough guy and high school dropout lectures us on global economics.

 

Nah.

 

He is a great actor and talent, but he needs to stick to his lane. 

 

Free speech and all that?

 

One day, you'll find yourself in the wrong lane and you won't have a clue how it happened.

 

But maybe it's happened already.

So sad. He really has descended into the mad old Grandpa waving his shotgun at the neighbours.

 

Let's all try to remember him for the great actor he once was.  

I agree.  He'll be gone soon. 

 

 

Presumably Mel Gibson, Roseanne Barr, James Woods, Jon Voight are also washed up actors who's views are a complete irrelevance, and they should also learn to shut their mouths.

Robert De Niro Slams Donald Trump

This is news?

DeNiro has the "it" which does not officially exist, and he has it really really bad. He will start aging in fellow sufferer Kathy Griffin years soon if he doesn't snap out of it soon.

As I recall, Mel is making another movie about Christ.  But of course you would never tell anyone, would you?

Is this with a Scottish or Aussie accent?

 

Gibson, De Niro, Pacino, Grant, Dyer, Pitt, Voight, Woods, Barr et al, all have Freedom of Expression and can say what they like. The British approach is the correct one; the government has no right to interfere in your freedom of expression. But you have no right to be heard.
