Robert De Niro, star of The Irishman, in which he plays a mafia killer, renewed his criticism of Donald Trump, telling The Guardian he is a “gangster president.”
Said De Niro: “We have a real, immediate problem in that we have a gangster president who thinks he can do anything he wants … the problem is, if he actually gets away with it, then we all have a problem.”
He added: “Oh, I can’t wait to see him in jail. I don’t want him to die, I want him to go to jail.”
