Robert De Niro recently told a reporter that President Donald Trump is disliked because, in his view, the president has chosen to do “mean” rather than “nice” things.
De Niro’s comments came during an interview with political correspondent Nicholas Ballasy, who asked the actor about claims that he suffers from Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS). De Niro dismissed the idea, calling it “nonsense,” and described Trump as “damaged.”

“People don’t like him for a reason, of all the terrible things he’s done,” De Niro said. “If he did nice things — he had the chance, he became president, to do nice things, not hateful, retribution, just outright mean things — if he did nice things, people would love him. But he’s got a problem. He’s damaged.”
When asked what his main criticism of President Trump is, De Niro responded, “Everything.”
De Niro, once celebrated for his decades-long acting career, has become a frequent figure in political commentary. His public statements on Trump and politics have drawn both attention and controversy, leading some to argue that his political opinions have overshadowed his legacy in film.
