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!”
JD Vance, who uses people like Charlie Kirk and other podcasters to spread propaganda.
Possible, but Goebbels tightly controlled the entire media, and we aren’t there yet.
I have no doubt that they believe that the time will come when they will take full control of all media, and approve all productions, and someone will be in charge of that. The Ellisons just took control of Paramount/CBS, so they might eventually be candidates.
I’m not sure its possible to control media to the degree it was back then. Far easier to broadcast now.
They already do. Oligarchs/ Corporations control all the networks, most TV stations, most radio stations, most newspapers, many cable news outlets, etc.
There’s a lot of self broadcasting now, its not directly tainted like the others. Its still not great out here though.
