Yesterday, footage was released of Oscar-winning actor Robert De Niro absolutely eviscerating Republican Presidential Nominee Donald Trump in an unused clip for #VoteYourFuture.
Everyone needs to watch Robert De Niro giving his views on Trump at least 20 times today! #VoteDeNiro
He says:
I mean, he’s so blatantly stupid. He’s a punk, he’s a dog, he’s a pig, he’s a con, he’s a bullshit artist, he’s a mutt who doesn’t know what he is talking about, doesn’t do his homework, doesn’t care.
[He] think’s he is gaming society, doesn’t pay his taxes. He’s an idiot. Colin Powell said it best: ‘He’s a national disaster.’ He’s an embarrassment to this country. It makes me so angry that this country has got to this point where this fool, this bozo has wound up where he has.
He talks about how he wants to punch people in the face. Well, I’d like to punch him in the face. This is somebody that we want for president? I don’t think so.
What I care about is the direction of this country and what I am very, very worried about is that it might go in the wrong direction with someone like Donald Trump. If you care about your future vote for it.
And while #VoteDeNiro became a popular hashtag on Twitter...
... It seems like fellow legendary actor Jon Voight is NOT a fan.
Voight, a die-hard Republican, wrote a series of tweets condemning DeNiro's words regarding Trump:
I am so ashamed of my fellow actor Bobby DeNiro's rant against Donald Trump. What foul words he used against a presidential nominee. cont'd
who has worked harder then any other man I know in the past year and a half to get a good message to the American people. cont'd..
I don't know of too many men who haven't expressed some sort of similar sexual terms toward women, especially in their younger years. cont'd
Donald Trump's words were not as damaging as Robert DeNiro's ugly rant. Trump's words did not hurt anyone. Can you imagine. cont'd
if any Republican said words like Robert DeNiro used - against Hilary Clinton or Barack Obama? All hell would break loose. cont'd
I am calling for all Trump supporters to express their outrage and anger against DeNiro and all of the Republican turncoats cont'd
against Trump. Let Donald Trump know we are completely behind him, and may God give him the strength to continue his calling.
Liev Schreiber pretty much summed everything up:
BuzzFeed has reached out to DeNiro's rep for comment.
