Robert DeNiro says he is banning Trump from his restaurants
The Hill ^ | 05/23/18 | Avery Anapol

Robert De Niro, a frequent critic of President Trump who has been playing special counsel Robert Mueller on "Saturday Night Live," talked Tuesday about how he'd like to bar the president from eating at his Nobu restaurant chain.

The Daily Mail reported that De Niro, a co-founder of the Nobu restaurant and hotel chain, insisted that he would not let Trump eat in his restaurants, and that he would leave any other eatery where the president entered.

“If he walked into a restaurant I was in, I’d walk out,” De Niro said.

Chef Nobu Matsuhisa, De Niro’s co-owner, then joked that it was his “dream for Trump to sit next to” De Niro so he could make them sushi.

Trump visited the Nobu restaurant in Moscow during his 2013 trip to Russia for the Miss Universe pageant, which has become a national focus after the release of a controversial dossier linking Trump to Russian nationals.

De Niro has repeatedly spoken out against Trump, referring to him as a “f---ing idiot” and a “f---ing fool,” among other jabs.

Why would Trump ever go slumming at Nobu?

It would be fun if President Trump bought the building De Zero’s restaurant rented space in.

Everyone should call the restaurant — spam it with non-stop calls — and make reservations for “Trump. Party of 10.” Make the number of calls so damn annoying for the maître d’ that they have to change the phone number. Then how will regular patrons contact them for real reservations?

“If he walked into a restaurant I was in, I’d walk out,” De Niro said.

I don’t think anybody would notice.

People should get reservations, go in and order only a cup of coffee, pay and leave.

No tip.

LOL! Banning someone from his restaurants who will never bother to go to one. All he’ll do with this move is destroy their business.

Is Nobu still relevant?

I don’t think of those restaurants when I’m in their respective areas.

Funny the things you learn. Does DeZero just use shoe
lifts in movies? Is he shorter than Pacino? And,Bobbie,
are you ever going to lose that dumbshit theatrical
scowl.....not that I’ll see a movie of yours? I might
consider getting myself bounced from one of your dives
after leaving you an audio message in a style with
which you are well acquainted.

Let’s see...

He’s going to ban someone,
who has never been to his restaurant in the first place.
