‘Colossally stupid’: Megyn Kelly blasts Robert De Niro event outside Trump trial

The Megyn Kelly Show host Megyn Kelly has called out US President Biden’s campaign in politicising Donald Trump’s New York criminal trial by having actor Robert De Niro and others hold a press conference near the courthouse.

The Hollywood actor stepped out on the busy streets of New York City in support of President Joe Biden's campaign, warning Americans' freedoms would vanish if Trump was voted to return to office in the 2024 Presidential election.

“It’s so stupid it was colossally stupid,” Ms Kelly told Sky News host Paul Murray.

“If you’re going to send somebody to go speak outside of the Trump trial make it someone who is universally beloved.

“Robert De Niro has gone so hard partisan for the past eight years he is like the number one example of Trump derangement syndrome.”

He just canceled himself in the best way possible!!!!

I think DeNiro might be a little worried about his past actions.

[shantishanti]

Barry Obama NEVER left the Whitehouse. !!

De Niro you should be ashamed of yourself

[junkyarddog]

I’m reminded of the phrase “It’s better to remain silent and appear to be a fool than to open your mouth and remove all doubt”.

[j-review]

Honestly. De Niro lost millions of admirers. He should have kept his extreme views to himself!

[Thomas-xece]

De Niro has read too many scripts and lost touch with reality.

[mr.waynes]

my only recommendation to all these jokers that say they will move out of the USA if Trump wins, is START PACKING YOUR BAGS....they won't go anywhere just like none of them did before, there was many, many that vowed to move away, it was all just TALK, just like it will be this time.

Robert DeNiro just destroyed his own legacy. He will forever be a laughingstock among the internet generation.

[kelvinbamfield]

The senile, supporting Brandon. Has been needed an audience

[rjfhhmz]

This administration has embarrassed our country, shameful

[Mel.U]

The car alarm that blasted non-stop during the whole De Niros rant contributed better audio sound

[susanmitchell]

The best thing DeNiro can do now for himself is to permanently disappear.

[kbreon]

I hope the dems paid DeNiro well for this little stunt...Considering the million plus lawsuit he just lost for bullying his assistant...

[bigbarty]

Doesn't De Niro realise that he is insulting millions of people who paid their hard earned money to watch his movies? They made him rich and he treats them like that? He's a disgrace.

[roberthidalgo]

I'm shocked I will never watch anything the narrow is in or supports ever again😢

[drrosemariejabbourchiro]

I have lost all respect for de an embarrassment

[brianwade]

The amount of bodyguards he had around him and he wants to take away our 2nd amendment rights away

[robertlynagh]

De Nero is an angry old has been. Having him there will only help President Trump. But you can always count on the Democrats to pull some sleazy deal like this. They are desperate.

Mr. De Zero hilariously switched from being an actor to a clown in the Biggest Circus ever. Not sure how much he got paid.
