Hollywood liberals from Robert De Niro to Samantha Bee have ramped up their foul-mouthed language to attack President Trump ahead of the midterm elections – but critics think the vulgar rhetoric will backfire.
“These outbursts are little more than political masturbation for the left -- it may make them feel good, but it produces nothing,” conservative strategist Chris Barron told Fox News.
De Niro launched a profanity-laced tirade at Trump during Sunday’s live broadcast of the politically charged Tony Awards, earning a standing ovation from the crowd of liberal elites.
“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 to bleep out the remarks. "It's no longer down with Trump, it's F--- Trump!"
As the audience of the exclusive soiree celebrated, average Americans took to Twitter to remind Americans why the Hollywood elite are so despised.
“On the eve of a summit that could lead to the denuclearization of N. Korea DiNiro [sic] stands before a national TV audience and says “f--- Trump”. That’s the left for you,” talk radio legend Neal Boortz wrote .
Political pundit Hugh Hewitt said that the Hollywood left is “Playing into Trump’s hands,” while dozens claimed “this is why Trump won.”
One user said they were “shocked at the stupidity of Di Niro’s comment,” and another added, “Thank god entertainers are not as important as they think they are.”

My co-worker who is a Democrat (but not a hard core liberal) said she is sick of the politics at award shows.
Agreed. I think that’s the real reason they hate Trump and his supporters. The can’t believe they didn’t propel Hillary to victory.
Such poisonous rhetoric from a restaurant owner.
“DeNiro is just senile.” Maybe, but for certain he is a two bit punk, who fails to realize that playing tough guys in the movies, does NOT make you a tough guy in real life.
