The Goodfellas star made the comment in response to co-host Jonathan Capehart asking him about his claim, a moment earlier on the show, that Trump will not leave the White House in 2028. Capehart said he was on the same “wavelength” as De Niro and agreed with him, before the actor compared Miller to Joseph Goebbels, the high-ranking Nazi leader and chief propagandist for Adolf Hitler.

“No way! We see it we see it we see it all the time — he will not want to leave. He set it up with, I guess he’s the Goebbels of the cabinet, Stephen Miller. He’s a Nazi,” De Niro said. “Yes, he is, and he should be ashamed of himself!”

    He hates Nazis, we can work on the other stuff once the fire has been put out.

    That said, you should rank the opinion of actors about as high as an average Facebook bot post.

      Oh absolutely.

      Was just pointing out that just because he’s right on this doesn’t means any of his other opinions worth listening to, or that he’s a good person.
