One of Donald Trump’s most vocal haters is the actor and movie-pageant founder Robert De Niro, a man who as soon as termed the insurrection-adjacent failed incumbent the star of a “tragic dumbass comedy.” Two months after a bleeped-out interview on The Watch that warned voters against Trump, De Niro formalizes his objection to the previous president vis-à-vis an formal Joe Biden reelection marketing campaign advertisement titled “Snapped.” He lends his voice to the 30-next spot, lambasting Trump for his social-media habit, idiotic statements, and disregard for the Monthly bill of Legal rights. “From midnight tweets to ingesting bleach, to tear-gassing citizens and staging a photo op, we realized Trump was out of command when he was president,” De Niro narrates. “Then he lost the 2020 election and snapped.”
Aesthetically, the ad is ingesting off Succession’s plate. It employs a soundtrack full of pressured-out, dissonant violins and an enhancing design that recalls the tragic dumbass comedy’s opening credits, down to the font choice. Professing Trump is “threatening to be a dictator” and to “terminate the Structure,” or else there will be a “bloodbath,” De Niro finishes by declaring the most politically prosperous fact-Tv set star needs “revenge … and he’ll end at very little to get it.” If only he had finished the full thing by stating Trump is “not major men and women.”
