Actor Robert De Niro once more criticized former President Donald Trump. The famed actor, 80, spoke on MSNBC’s The 11th Hour and publicly slammed Trump. Since Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign, De Niro has been outspoken about his negative views on Trump.

In the interview, De Niro warned people about Trump’s potential return to the White House if he wins this year’s election. He referred to Trump as “a sick person,” “narcissistic,” a “monster” and a “stupid bully.” However, in the same segment, De Niro stated he was “tired of calling [Trump] names.”

De Niro then drew comparisons between Adolf Hilter, Benito Mussolini and Trump. “Historically, from what I see, even in Nazi Germany, they had it with Hitler. They don’t take him seriously. He looks like a clown. Acts like a clown. Mussolini. Same thing. These guys, I don’t know why they look like clowns.”

De Niro went on a separate tirade against the former president on Bill Maher‘s talk show in March. 

“He’s such a mean, nasty, hateful person,” De Niro said about Trump on the episode. “I’d never play him as an actor because I can’t see any good in him. Nothing. Nothing at all. Nothing redeemable in him.”

De Niro received a standing ovation at the 2018 Tony Awards when he said on stage, “F— Trump.”
