Robert De Niro appeared outside the Manhattan Courthouse on Tuesday, May 28, as closing arguments were underway for Donald Trump’s hush money trial. At a news conference held by President Joe Biden’s campaign outside the Manhattan courtroom, the 80-year-old Oscar winner, who provided the voiceover for a new 30-second advertisement warning of the danger in Trump’s return, reiterated his concerns to the crowd.

However, after delivering a dire speech warning the crowd about the perils of Trump’s return to the Oval Office, Robert De Niro was mercilessly heckled by Trump supporters as he made his way to the car, prompting the actor to get into a sparring match outside the courtroom. Robert De Niro, among many other insults, was called a “wannabe” and “paid sell-out” before one bystander yelled, “You’re washed up,” prompting De Niro to yell, “F**k you.”

As he made his way to the car, one Trump supporter in a MAGA hat repeatedly heckled Robert De Niro, calling him a “Mook.” A Mook is a foolish, insignificant person regarded with contempt due to their incompetence.
