Gutfeld on Robert De Niro’s view from 'The View'
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Robert De Niro graced the knitting circle in hell known as “The View,” where he tried to link random thoughts into a sentence.
Joy Behar was there to wind him up, since he's played some of the most unredeemable characters.
"You have played some of the most, really, unredeemable characters," Behar said. "Is Trump worse than they are?" De Niro responded, "To me, he is."
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}De Niro clearly has thought about this, more so than his career. His choice of roles is now down to cinnamon and lobster.

Here you have someone pretending to be a tough guy who turned out to be just a "second banana" for Joy Behar, the poster child for Trump derangement. Sadly, Bob is now just another gibbering, enfeebled ninny surrounded by inept relatives, as he frets about how Trump is in power and he's not.
Trump's rise coincides with De Niro's decline. And the person who knows it most is De Niro.

But the Rep. Adam Schiffs, D-Calif., and De Niros of the world are emotionally damaged by politics to a point where they can't even assess their own emotions.
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Being an actor is tough. How does one handle real life without a script?
Not equipped to think analytically, you're left powerless when observing your own predictions about life turn out wrong. It's not supposed to be this way, De Niro thinks. Only the cool guys get to win.

At least you'll always have Joy.
