Robert De Niro has hit out at Donald Trump again, saying the former US President “wants to destroy” America.The actor appeared at the New York Film Festival with Megalopolis director Francis Ford Coppola and Spike Lee at the movie’s premiere last night (September 23).During a Q&A, De Niro drew parallels between the film’s imagined world and America’s election-year anxiety.He said (via Deadline): “I’m worried.

I see the things in Francis’ film about that, the parallels and so on. To me, it’s not over until it’s over and we have to go at this wholeheartedly to beat the Republicans – those Republicans, they’re not real Republicans – and beat Trump.

It’s that simple. We cannot have that type of person. Everybody has to get out there and vote.”De Niro continued: “Just imagine Donald Trump directing this film.

It’ll never go anywhere, from total craziness. He cannot do anything. He cannot hold anything together … He wants to destroy the country.
