The Gotham Awards Controversy:
A recent clash between legendary actor Robert De Niro and former President Donald Trump has erupted after De Niro claimed that a portion of his speech at the Gotham Awards was censored.
The actor accused Apple, the organizer of the awards, of deleting a segment that contained sharp criticisms of Trump.
Trump’s Response on Truth Social:
In a swift response, Trump took to his Truth Social platform to condemn De Niro, labeling him a ‘total loser’ and asserting that the actor’s ‘acting talents have greatly diminished.’ Trump dismissed De Niro’s remarks, indicating that he now relies on a teleprompter for his speeches, further describing his language as ‘foul and disgusting.’
The Feud’s Background:
This latest exchange adds a new chapter to the ongoing feud between De Niro and Trump. The actor has been vocal in his criticism of the former president, intensifying his comments leading up to the 2016 election.
The recent incident occurred as De Niro was delivering a speech at the Gotham Awards, where he was honored for his work on the film “Killers Of The Flower Moon.”
De Niro’s Censored Speech:
During his acceptance speech, De Niro claimed that a portion of his remarks was edited without his knowledge. He expressed frustration at the censorship, stating, “History isn’t history anymore. Truth is not truth.” The actor delved into topics such as distorted historical narratives and the spread of misinformation.
Trump’s Scathing Critique:
Trump seized the opportunity to criticize De Niro’s recent actions, asserting that the actor has become ‘unwatchable’ both in movies and with the decline of the Academy Awards’ viewership. He urged De Niro to focus on his own life, describing him as a ‘total loser’ with a ‘messy’ life.
The Larger Context:
This feud occurs against the backdrop of De Niro recently being ordered to pay $1.2 million in damages in a gender discrimination lawsuit filed by his former assistant. While the actor was found not personally liable for the abuse, his company, Canal Productions, was held accountable for gender discrimination and retaliation.
Conclusion:
The clash between De Niro and Trump, fueled by a censored speech and a social media exchange, adds another layer to their longstanding feud. As both personalities continue to exchange barbs and accusations, the public watches this celebrity clash unfold with a mix of intrigue and commentary on the broader issues raised by the actor in his censored speech.
