How do we explain a privileged, but vicious, man like Robert DeNiro?
American Thinker ^ | 16 Jun, 2026 | Patricia McCarthy

These “stars” live in rarefied neighborhoods and have full-time security when they venture out. And yet because they subscribe to the New York Times, they think they are our benefactors.

he once-revered and talented actor Robert DeNiro lost his humanity years ago now, during President Trump’s first term.

THe transformed himself from a beloved actor, a great actor, into a hateful, whiny, disturbed man who, by now, no one but the most Trump-deranged wants to hear speak, act or blather on and on about how he can’t love this country as long as Trump is our president.

The same is true of Jane Fonda, Julia Roberts, Bette Midler, etc., all the moonbat celebrities who think we care what they think about anything.

They spend their lives entertaining us by acting in fictional roles as fictional people. They are good at their jobs, most of them. But that talent they have, whether God-given or learned does not qualify them to tell us what to think or for whom to vote. They live in bubbles of wealth. They often endure the fawning admiration of crowds of people they do not know but who derive joy by sharing their lives vicariously.

Jane Fonda has a long and storied record of hating America; her activities would have shocked and embarrassed her father who was indeed a great actor. He was a Democrat who enlisted to fight in WWII and served in the Navy for three years. If he were alive today, he would surely be a Republican.

The Democrat party of today loathes the military and considers the people who volunteer to be a part of it to be tools of the right.

Nothing could be further from the truth. These young people who join any branch of the military

These “stars” have played make-believe for so long that they have lost touch with reality. And some stars collapse into black holes.

Just because someone can act, doesn’t mean they are an outstanding person. Also, the fat ego often gets in the way of being right with God.

To start, he lives in an echo chamber of fellow travelers. Those who disagree remain silent because of repercussions to their careers.

He’s just an actor. No one gives a Dorkbama what he thinks. If he can think.

The author of the article is forgetting the first rule of fight club, “always remember they are all insane.” These are clinically insane people who function because they are wealthy celebrities. Society tolerates them because of that.

The original 1962 Cape Fear with Gregory Peck and Robert Mitchum is much better than the remake.

I feel the same way. He WAS a great actor. The Deer Hunter, Taxi Driver, The Godfather 2, just to name a few.

Now, I too avoid watching his movies.

The demonicRAT Party used to placate the lunatic fringe but now the lunatic fringe IS the demonicRAT Party.

Describing him can be done in either one or two words. First letter is a, last letter is e as in axxhxxe or axx hxxe.

They are all friends who stick together as Democrat liberals.
They are married to left wingers, who bad mouth everyone and are miserable people.

A great many have no education. They should count their blessing that they have a relatively easy job and we don’t treat them as minstrels in the past where you performed and were given small tips, food, and place to sleep before you moved on.

Who cares? Honestly. To me, De Niro ranting and raving like a lunatic about Trump is just another form of entertainment. His stupid antics are amusing. No one - not even on the Left - takes him seriously. The only reason he gets booked on MSNBC is because they need content and no one else is willing to go on some of their basement-rated shows. So they get this clown. Then he tries to make serious points, which can be even more funny. Him, Springsteen, Midler, Streisand. They are all clowns who used to be talented, but who are way past their prime and are just destroying their legacy with their buffoonery. But its amusing to watch.
