Robert De Niro Speaks Out about Donald Trump to Ari Melber

Featured

Joe Biden, now President-elect, as of November 7, 2020, surpassed the necessary 270 electoral votes to win the U.S. Presidency in the November 3, 2020 election. The votes including Nevada and Pennsylvania brought Biden from 253 electoral votes to 279 electoral votes. Even when there was a question about the 2016 election during recounts in MI, WI and PA, President Barack Obama ensured there was a smooth transition to whoever would be the next President of the United States. Donald Trump, however, has yet to provide funds so far for a smooth transition.

Instead, today, Trump fired Secretary of Defense, Mark Esper, and threatened to fire CIA Chief, Christopher Wray. His appointee at the General Services Administration has refused to date to sign a document to release necessary funds to the President-elect transition.

Robert De Niro interviewed by Ari Melber on November 9, 2020 on MSNBC expressed relief that Joe Biden is President-Elect. De Niro said that the entire country has been in an “abusive relationship” with Trump:

“Well, I’m relieved, very very relieved.

It’s like being in an abusive relationship. We don’t know what’s going on from one day to the next. I don’t even think he knows what’s going on.”
