My parents were immigrants from East Germany, war babies. What he says is absolutely true. My parents used to tell me Americans take this country for granted and they also warned me. Don't ever think it can happen here. It can happen anywhere. They were so right.

Vote for the country not for the party.

It's decency. It's right and wrong. And then democracy follows. Well said. When did evil become good and morals become bad? Crazy times.

1:40 - There's no redeeming thing in Trump? Bit presumptuous, we know nothing of his future cellmate.

We love and appreciate you Robert De Niro…your voice and use of your Celebrity Platform is so much needed. America 🇺🇸 needs more honest and brave celebrities like you. Others in the Entertainment Industry Choosing to keep silent because of their fanbase, is truly sad and a cop out in my opinion ❤
