Donald Trump threatens to deport Robert De Niro

Trump suggested deporting critics including actor Robert De Niro and Democratic lawmakers after they publicly opposed his administration and heckled him at the State of the Union.

  • Yesterday, President Donald Trump posted on Truth Social calling Robert De Niro `sick and demented` and proposed deporting critics including Rep. Ilhan Omar and Rep. Rashida Tlaib.
  • At the State of the Swamp, Washington event, De Niro earlier urged Americans to resist Trump’s divisiveness and criticised the President after his Cannes 2025 speech.
  • In his tirade, Trump wrote critics have `bulging, bloodshot eyes` and used `Trump derangement syndrome` to describe opponents, calling De Niro `sick and demented`.
  • The truth social tirade prompted backlash, noting Trump’s suggestion linked to Rob Reiner's death, while legal and citizenship constraints make deporting U.S. critics unlikely.
  • Trump's pattern of threats has precedent, as last year he threatened to revoke Rosie O'Donnell's citizenship while a Reuters/Ipsos poll found 61 per cent say he has `become erratic with age` and 79 per cent say leaders are too old.
