Actor Robert De Niro’s press conference in support of President Biden outside the NYC courthouse where Trump is on trial was panned on social media by the right.
Social media users on the right mocked the Biden campaign after it held a chaotic press conference on Tuesday outside the Manhattan courthouse holding former President Trump’s criminal trial.
The press conference was headlined by liberal actor Robert De Niro, who stars in a new ad campaign for President Biden. The actor claimed that Trump «wants to destroy» the city and the nation and eventually could destroy the entire world.
Conservatives compared the press conference, which was disrupted by hecklers and a car alarm, to an episode of the satirical HBO show, «Veep.»
«The Biden campaign’s efforts with Robert De Niro at the Trump hearings today had a very Veep feel to them,» Republican strategist Matt Whitlock wrote on X, putting a split screen video of credits of the show next to De Niro’s angry appearance.
De Niro was heckled by Trump supporters as he was leaving the podium after giving his remarks.
